According to Claude (@claudeai), Cowork now supports plugins, enabling users to bundle skills, connectors, slash commands, and sub-agents to customize Claude for specialized roles, teams, and companies. This development allows organizations to streamline workflows and enhance productivity by tailoring Claude's capabilities to specific business requirements, as reported by Claude's official Twitter account.

According to @claudeai, the Claude Code extension for Visual Studio Code has reached general availability, providing developers with advanced AI coding assistance directly within the popular IDE (source: https://twitter.com/claudeai/status/2013704053226717347). The extension now closely mirrors the command-line interface experience by supporting @-mention for file context and familiar slash commands such as /model, /mcp, and /context. This enhancement enables more efficient, context-aware coding and AI code completion, which is expected to streamline developer workflows and increase productivity for teams adopting AI-driven software development tools.
