Anthropic Launches Projects Feature for Claude Cowork Desktop

Anthropic has introduced a 'Projects' feature for Claude Cowork Desktop that lets users tie a local folder, instructions, and task history into a persistent workspace so the assistant can read, edit, and create files within approved locations. The update—targeted at Pro, Team, and Enterprise users—aims to reduce context drift across sessions for research and multi-step tasks while preserving user confirmation and privacy controls; Anthropic also signaled future additions like cross-device sync and safety improvements.
