Cross-platform session continuity now spans CLI, desktop, web, and mobile. Other additions include native Git worktree isolation for parallel agent sessions, a configuration-change security hook, improved VS Code and JetBrains IDE integrations, and Opus 4.6 support with a large token context window, adaptive thinking, and automatic memory storage for long-running projects. ## Content Anthropic has significantly upgraded Claude Code, its AI-powered coding assistant, by introducing a suite of robust features to enhance the coding experience across various platforms. These new capabilities are designed to streamline the development workflow and improve productivity for developers. The desktop app of Claude Code now includes a live preview feature that allows developers to view running web applications and monitor console logs directly within the interface. This eliminates the need for constant browser switching, making the development process more efficient. Additionally, the app introduces a 'Review Code' button which can analyze code diffs, highlight potential bugs, and apply automatic fixes, thus simplifying the code review process. Integration with GitHub has been enhanced to include pull request (PR) monitoring. This feature comes with optional automated fixes for continuous integration (CI) failures and supports auto-merging once all checks have passed, thanks to the integration with the GitHub CLI. Moreover, Claude Code's cross-platform session continuity ensures seamless transitions between command-line interface (CLI), desktop, web, and mobile versions, allowing developers to maintain their workflow without disruption, irrespective of the device being used. Other notable updates include the introduction of native Git worktree isolation for parallel agent sessions, a new configuration-change hook for enhanced security auditing, and an upgraded simple mode that supports file editing. The new updates also extend to Claude Code’s CLI, allowing for increased mobility and flexibility in development. In addition to these desktop and CLI enhancements, various improvements have been made to integrations with popular development environments like VS Code and JetBrains IDEs. Furthermore, Opus 4.6 brings a massive token context window, with capabilities such as adaptive thinking and automatic memory storage for ongoing projects, improving long-term task management and learning across sessions. Through these updates, Anthropic is enhancing the functionality and convenience of Claude Code, making it a vital tool for developers seeking an AI-backed assistant to optimize their coding processes. ## Similar posts on daily.dev - [Anthropic extends Claude Code to browsers](https://daily.dev/posts/anthropic-extends-claude-code-to-browsers-ibcvkf9i8) · InfoWorld · 19 upvotes · 0 comments --- Tags: [#cicd](https://daily.dev/tags/cicd), [#claude-code](https://daily.dev/tags/claude-code), [#devtools](https://daily.dev/tags/devtools), [#github](https://daily.dev/tags/github) [View this post on daily.dev](https://daily.dev/posts/new-features-in-claude-code-desktop-enhance-development-workflow-1pjlio04t) ```json {"@context":"https://schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Organization","@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180},"sameAs":["https://twitter.com/dailydotdev","https://github.com/dailydotdev","https://www.linkedin.com/company/daily-dev-ltd"]},{"@type":"WebSite","@id":"https://daily.dev/#website","url":"https://daily.dev","name":"daily.dev","publisher":{"@id":"https://daily.dev/#organization"},"potentialAction":{"@type":"SearchAction","target":{"@type":"EntryPoint","urlTemplate":"https://daily.dev/search?q={search_term_string}"},"query-input":"required name=search_term_string"}}]} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"TechArticle","headline":"New Features in Claude Code Desktop Enhance Development Workflow","url":"https://daily.dev/posts/new-features-in-claude-code-desktop-enhance-development-workflow-1pjlio04t","mainEntityOfPage":{"@type":"WebPage","@id":"https://daily.dev/posts/new-features-in-claude-code-desktop-enhance-development-workflow-1pjlio04t"},"datePublished":"2026-02-20T20:07:32.850Z","dateModified":"2026-03-15T03:41:53.933Z","description":"Anthropic has rolled out major updates to Claude Code, its AI coding assistant, adding live web preview and console log monitoring in the desktop app, a...","image":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2b516ec04ecf2dbf63e7053bd4f632be?_a=AQAEuop","thumbnailUrl":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/f_auto,q_auto/v1/posts/2b516ec04ecf2dbf63e7053bd4f632be?_a=AQAEuop","isAccessibleForFree":true,"articleSection":"Collections","inLanguage":"en","publisher":{"@type":"Organization","name":"daily.dev","url":"https://daily.dev","logo":{"@type":"ImageObject","url":"https://daily.dev/apple-touch-icon.png","width":180,"height":180}},"author":{"@type":"Organization","name":"Collections","logo":"https://media.daily.dev/image/upload/s--fk_6ycEi--/f_auto,q_auto/v1780996001/logos/collections?_a=BAMAMiWQ0","url":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},"commentCount":0,"discussionUrl":"https://daily.dev/posts/new-features-in-claude-code-desktop-enhance-development-workflow-1pjlio04t","interactionStatistic":[{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"LikeAction"},"userInteractionCount":1},{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":{"@type":"CommentAction"},"userInteractionCount":0}],"keywords":"cicd,claude-code,devtools,github","timeRequired":"PT2M"} {"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"BreadcrumbList","itemListElement":[{"@type":"ListItem","position":1,"name":"Home","item":"https://daily.dev"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":2,"name":"Collections","item":"https://daily.dev/sources/collections"},{"@type":"ListItem","position":3,"name":"New Features in Claude Code Desktop Enhance Development Workflow"}]} ```
