Anthropic launched Claude Code Channels, a feature that lets users communicate with Claude agents via Telegram and Discord. The integration allows developers to interact with Claude-powered agents through existing messaging platforms rather than dedicated interfaces.

The feature is aimed at teams that already use Telegram or Discord for internal communication and want to embed AI assistance into their existing workflows.

Channels represents Anthropic's push to make Claude accessible beyond its own applications and API.
