Claude

Anthropic opened a Claude Desktop beta for Ubuntu and Debian that bundles chat, Claude Code, and Claude Cowork in a native Linux app. It gives Linux users a first-party desktop path into Claude workflows, though Computer Use is still missing from this release.

Anthropic released ready-to-run finance templates for pitchbooks, valuation reviews, KYC, and month-end close across Cowork, Claude Code, and Managed Agents. Use them to start with bundled connectors, skills, and subagents instead of building each workflow from scratch.

Independent guides showed DeepSeek V4 running inside Claude Cowork and Claude Code via Anthropic-compatible endpoints, and Ollama added launch commands for Claude-style wrappers. The workflow matters because teams can keep Claude-centered agent UX while sharply lowering model spend, with provider compatibility and setup still the main caveats.
