Claude Code gets sandboxed desktop browser

While terminal-based developer agents have excelled at local codebase manipulation, giving them a native sandboxed browser transforms them into full-stack automation agents that can bridge local files with web-based tools and APIs.

* Native web interaction reduces context switching, allowing the agent to reference online docs or live testing environments.

* The sandboxed environment is crucial for security, mitigating risks when executing arbitrary web interactions.

* This feature signals a shift in AI coding tools from pure text-based code generation to active, multi-modal web agent workflows.
