@Claude and Claude in Slack

@Claude is listed in Anthropic’s product navigation as its own entry, which tells you something: Claude-in-chat is treated as a product surface, not a plug-in feature of something else.

What it does

In Slack, you mention Claude in a thread and it takes the work from there. The canonical documented example is routing a bug report to a pull request: someone describes a bug in a channel, mentions Claude, and a PR comes back.

Because the thread already contains the context — the report, the discussion, the links — this removes the step where a human re-explains the problem to a coding agent.

Where the boundary sits

There are two related things here and the docs keep them apart:

• Claude in Slack — the Claude Code integration, documented on the Claude Code docs site.
• Claude Tag — the broader tagging surface, also documented there.

Both are covered by the same source pages; this entry treats them together because the user-visible action is the same one.

What this page does not claim

Setup steps, workspace admin requirements and per-plan gating are documented upstream and are not reproduced here. Availability below Pro is recorded as unavailable based on Claude Code’s own plan gating, since the Slack route drives Claude Code.
