Claude Adds Reflect: A Monthly Recap and Usage Dashboard for How You Use Claude
Anthropic introduced Reflect, a beta dashboard in Claude's Settings that shows a monthly recap of when you use Claude most and what you worked on, with quiet hours and break nudges. It runs only when memory is on, covers Free, Pro, and Max but not Team or Enterprise, and skips incognito chats, health integrations, Cowork, and Claude Code.
Claude Desktop for Linux Beta: Ubuntu and Debian, With Caveats
Anthropic shipped a beta of the Claude desktop app for Linux on Ubuntu 22.04+ and Debian 12+ (x86_64 or arm64), with Chat, Cowork, and Claude Code on all paid plans. The app does not self-update; updates arrive through apt, and as of August 2026 a directly installed .deb registers the repo itself. Computer Use and Dictation are missing.
Claude Science Beta: An AI Workbench for Reproducible Research
Claude Science is Anthropic's beta research app, not a model. It runs Python and R analyses in a local sandbox, queries 60+ scientific databases, submits jobs over SSH or to Modal, and attaches code, environment, and conversation provenance to every artifact. As of September 2026 it runs on macOS, Windows, and Linux for Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise plans.

The app also supports cloud agents, mobile review, and PR merges.
