Anthropic Just Dropped Claude Code Artifacts (endless possibilities)

Enthropic just dropped artifacts directly inside of Claude Code. This is a really interesting feature if you are a Claude Code user. This is slightly different from Claude Co-work artifacts in normal Claude chat artifacts. So, in this video, we're going to break down what this means for you if you're a Claude user. I'm going to show you it live in action with a couple of different use cases, as well as you are going to see how you can now share artifacts inside of Claude with your team with live information across your codebase and all the different applications that you use on a day-to-day basis. All right. So, I first of all want to show this in action. Just a quick little example. So, I came to Claude Code. As you can see, we're in Claude Code, not Co-work. And I said create an artifact explaining the new Claude Code artifacts compared to the Claude.ai app. And then now we actually have this artifact that lives on the right hand side of our screen. You can see I have one in this style. And then I have another one in this style. as well as we can now see we have an artifacts tab right here that we did not have prior inside of claude code in the desktop app. So if I click on this you can now see I have two artifacts that are living here that I just created a couple of minutes ago. I can click on create new artifact and basically inside of this text box here we can just explain what it is we want to turn into an artifact and then it will create it. So we'll come back to this but I first want to talk about how this works and some of the key differentiating features that makes this really interesting compared to the other cloud artifacts that we had before this. All right so first of all here is the tweet announcement from anthropic. It said new include code artifacts interactive pages built from your session like a PR walkthrough or a live project dashboard shared with your team at a private link. And this is one of the key things that really makes this a gamecher, so to say, when it comes to artifacts. I do want to I do want to preface that this is available in beta only on team and enterprise plans as of right now. I personally had to pay $150 to get access to this on the team plan so I could show you in this video. So, if you could do me a favor and subscribe to this channel for more content like this, it would really help me out. Now, if I pull up the article they gave us on the new Claude Code artifacts, I'm going to break down some of the key things here that we need to understand. Right here, it says, "Starting today, Claude Code can capture work progress as an artifact, which turns Claude codes work into live sharable visual pages. If you've never used an artifact before, they're basically interactive dashboards that you could create that you could run inside of your Claude desktop app or inside of the Cloud.ai AI application that that you can access on the web browser. What I have highlighted right here is kind of the key topic for this release. Artifacts can translate the work into a web page anyone can open and explore. This is really powerful if you are using cloud code with your team for example because what you could do is you could take all of the work from your previous applications that you're connected to via your connectors or MCPs and you could pull all of that data into a artifact that you could share with your team so they could see what it is you're working on not only inside of Claude and your codebase but also inside of the apps that you're using whether that is Gmail or Slack, Google Calendar, all of those different things. We can now pull from our entire workspace to create interactive dashboards for our team to look at. Artifacts make it easier to collaborate on shared work. So teams can spend more time building and less time communicating status updates. Again, just like I said before, cloud code builds an artifact using the full context of our session, including our codebase connectors and the conversation itself. So let's say we were working on a pretty comprehensive task or we had a huge chat conversation with Claude Code. We can now share that as an artifact to our team so they could see what we're working on to provide context and we could have it in a very structured dashboard that looks really clean and simple. All right. So to give you a perfect example right here I have this conversation to have with cloud code. I said create an artifact explaining how we are scraping competitors content so I could share it with my team. Then what it did is it pulled through all the different skills and workflows and databases we're pulling in order to scrape content out there. And this is a pretty complex task that I have Claude Code do. Now on the right hand side, this is the text output. And as you could see, this is kind of a bunch of gibberish right here. It's breaking down the data files and storage. And this is just a bunch of text for us to read through. And this isn't pleasing to the eye. Um, and there's a better way to do this now using artifacts. So what I did is I created that artifact called competitor scraping explained that lives right here. I could open it up. Now on the right hand side we can see this artifact which acts as an internal dashboard explaining all that gibberish into a much more digestible format that we could see right here. So it breaks down these specific ampify tools that we're using here that my team can understand. It shows the daily flow, the step-by-step process on how it's actually scraping for content ideas. And then it's even showing how topics get scored in order to in order to figure out which ideas we should actually turn into content. Now, this is great and this is great for me and internal use. We could have just spun up a normal HTML that we could view locally on our device inside of Cloud Code. But what makes this really interesting is we could click share and we could now share this with anybody on our team plan. When I give them the link to this, they could see live information, which is the exact same information I could see. So, let's say I make a change to this workflow here. It would then automatically pull the changes that we've made to this artifact, not only for me, but for my team member that has access to it. Because, as you can see, it shows always share latest version. So, it's always going to update in real time. So, you don't need to constantly go back and forth and make sure it's up to date. And then if I come back and click on artifacts, we should now see this living directly inside of here. How we scrape competitors content. All right, so let's now build an artifact from scratch. So you could see exactly how this works. This is going to pull from a couple of different apps that we connect to Claude. So you can see the power when we combine it with the applications we're using in order to pull real live information across our different workspace and not just the code bases that we're working inside of. I'm going to come over to artifacts, click on new artifact, or we could simply just type in what we want to build. So, let's do that now. I want you to build me an artifact that automatically pulls from my Gmail and my Google calendar. So, that way my team can see what's on my calendar and my docket for the day. So, that way they don't always bother me because they could see how busy I am. I want them to see when free time is for them to actually speak with me. This is going to be a universal dashboard for our entire company. And while it's doing that, we need to make sure to configure the apps that we want to add. So, first of all, we're going to come over to customize. Click on connectors. I'm simply going to browse the connectors and select Gmail. I'm going to click on connect. And now I have Gmail connected. From here, I'm just going to click on always allow for permissions. So, it doesn't always ask if, you know, it could go ahead and, you know, create emails for me, read my emails, etc. Then, I'm going to do the same thing for Google Calendar. Now, let's say there is an app we want to connect to that we do not see in this list right here. I'm going to show you how you can do that right now. So, I want to connect to something called Buffer, which is basically a scheduling platform where my team and I schedule content for me for Instagram, LinkedIn, Tik Tok, etc. And I want to be able to pull information from that. So, what I could do is since there is no connector here, I could use something called Zap Your MCP. And let me show you exactly how that works. So, if you don't know what this is, this is basically an automation platform and they have an MCP in order to bridge the gap between all the different apps you use and things like Claude, OpenClaw, Hermes agent, all those different AI applications. What I'm going to do is sign up for an account. I already have one. And what I'm going to do is click on new MCP server. And again, you guys don't need to do this. This is only if there's an app you want to connect to. You can't do directly inside of Claw. Now, I have all these apps already connected. We have Buffer already added here. And in order to add an app, we just click on add app. I would search up buffer. Simply select this, toggle it on, select all tools, click add tool, and then we can now access information across this app and do things on that app as well. Then I'm just going to select connect, click add to claude, and then we now have Zapier connected. So I can now use Buffer and take a look at all the posts I have scheduled along with my team. All right, so this is pretty cool. You can now see that it created this dashboard for us. It shows that I'm available right now. Brock is free. No meetings on the books today. This is the best window to catch up with him. It then shows how many unread emails I have. So my team could see, okay, maybe Brock is busy even if he doesn't have a meeting right now. Obviously, it shows my week and day at a glance right here, which is pretty cool. It even shows the best times to reach me, everything that's going on inside of my email inbox. So this is a very random example. I just wanted to show you how we can now share this with our team so they could see what's going on across all the different applications we're using. Or you could do the same with, you know, the code bases you're working inside of so your team could see what it is you're working on day-to-day. So if I wanted to share this, I just click share. I would have to add in the email of somebody in my workspace. And mind you, they need to be somebody that is on my team's plan. And if they're not, they won't be able to access this. And then I click copy link and can send it to them directly. Obviously, I'd have to come here and grant access to everyone inside of the Brock Message organization. So, I want if I wanted anyone to see that, then I would just go ahead and grant that and then copy the link to share with them. Now, there we have it. That's the new Claude code artifacts.
