Claude Turns Connectors Into Full Workspaces
Anthropic is rolling out supported apps beside Claude’s conversation or full screen, letting users and Claude edit pages, rows, files, photos, and more together through the existing approval flow. The web and desktop update extends MCP Apps from small in-chat views into full embedded tools across all plans. [Announcement](https://claude.com/resources/articles/interactive-connectors-full-tool)
Claude is moving from chatbot to shared work environment, with the model acting inside the tools where work actually happens. The ceiling is now connector quality: each integration’s app tools, permissions, and editing depth determine how useful the experience becomes.
- –MCP Apps lets developers embed interactive interfaces, app tools, and full sites inside supporting AI clients. [Developer details](https://claude.com/resources/articles/interactive-connectors-full-tool)
- –Current examples span Confluence editing, Adobe photo and PDF work, Box file revisions, HubSpot pipelines, and Notion documents.
- –Existing permissions and approval flows remain in place, while sandboxed iframes and auditable JSON-RPC messaging address security concerns. [Security details](https://support.claude.com/en/articles/13454812-use-interactive-connectors-in-claude)
- –All-plan availability could accelerate adoption, but staged rollout and connector-specific capabilities mean the experience will vary by account and app.
- –For AI tool builders, this makes polished UI a first-class part of an MCP integration rather than an optional companion.
