Claude now drives a Chromium window inside the desktop app that never touches your tabs, logins, or history. Credentials import site by site, with banking, email, and SSO portals excluded by default. Enterprise admins can switch it on today from Organization settings; Pro, Max, and Team finish rolling out this week.

Why it matters. Teams can hand Claude a web task without handing it a live employee session. Read our take.

Unconfigured GA models now inherit your org policy, and that policy defaults to enabled, so frontier models an admin assumed were off may already be reachable by developers. DeepSeek, Kimi K2, and Fable 5 stay off regardless. Enforcement finishes September 1.

Why it matters. Audit every model in Copilot Business or Enterprise settings in the next few days, before someone ships on a model nobody approved. Here is the 4-state setting to check.

Claudeforce ships a Salesforce plugin with 37 prebuilt sales skills (meeting prep, deal-health review, pipeline analysis) reading live CRM data from inside Claude. The AIforce harness wires MCP servers to Salesforce's business-rules engine, so permissions carry over and one admin connects the whole team at once. The setup inverts the usual arrangement: the CRM becomes the AI's context instead of AI bolted onto the CRM.

Why it matters. If you are weighing CRM-plus-AI options, this is the new bar for how deep native access can go. Read the breakdown.

Copilot's Customize tab (GA Aug 25) is the first browse-and-install MCP marketplace inside the editor, and most of what is listed is noise. Our install order: the GitHub MCP server first, since it already reasons about your issues and PRs, then Firecrawl for live web data, then exactly one automation layer, not two.
