Claude in Chrome - Let Claude see, click, type, and navigate in your browser

by•
Now Claude can navigate, click buttons, and fill forms in your browser. It works with Claude Code and Claude Desktop and is available in beta to all paid subscribers. After months of real-world testing, we're expanding to all paid plans. We've also shipped our most requested feature: an integration for Claude Code. Build in your terminal, verify in your browser, and debug with Claude reading console errors and DOM state directly.

Very interested to hook up @Claude Code to my browser through this extension... what could possibly go wrong??

@chrismessina Probably another excellent tool from Anthropic. However, I guess this will hit hard into the usage limit, which already feels a little thin for Max 5x users lately. I don't think Pro users can handle this one.

@chrismessina Core risks: permission escalation (the AI inheriting your login to act on internal systems) + expanded attack surface (extension + terminal combos have had RCE exploits). For personal use, strictly limit permissions; for enterprise, hold off until you have Agent security auditing in place. You’re essentially running a black‑box Agent with your identity—always assume the worst‑case breach scenario before enabling.

Claude is already my first choice in the AI tools I use daily; this makes it worth paying for.

Andrew Stewart

@osakasaul I'm curious -- how do you leverage it daily without paying for it?

Saul Fleischman

@andrew_g_stewart I mainly use claud for prompt refining. I'll typically ask it for a series of prompts that will build something complex with a LCNC solution like Lovable or Medo.

@osakasaul Claude has also become my go-to AI tool for daily use.

Any plans to support Chromium-based browsers like Arc?

always a big fan of everything claude!

Feels like we have a good alternative to that ugly Copilot that is natively integrated into Edge. Actually, it's way better. It's not even a fair comparison.

But, I think we also need to take some precautions with prompt injection, since this can expose us even more while agentic browsing.

English:
Totally agree on both counts — massive UX win over Copilot, but the more agency we give AI in the browser, the scarier prompt injection becomes.

If this works as well as other Claude features, it's going to be incredibly valuable.

Tried multiple times, always the same connection error...

I do like to use some claude...but I am a bit scared to try this...What if I like it? Will the internet ever be the same? o.0 Anyway thanks for making awesome new products. And I suppose I am deff gonna use this. Anything to save me time to spend with my family away from working on the screen is a win in my book.

NanceLu

@getquot3d_eric That "fear of dependency" feeling is real. But "saving screen time and returning to life" is exactly the value technology should offer.

Three steps to build confidence:

  1. Start with low‑risk tasks (like organizing bookmarks)

  2. Set permission guardrails (block sensitive actions)

  3. Keep manual confirmation—you always hold the wheel

The internet won’t go back to how it was, but AI might free us from information overload and help us focus more on offline life. A tool’s success is measured by how it helps us live more fully, not by how glued we are to screens.

Stay in control, use tools well, and enjoy life. Have a great weekend.

Claude browser extension is clean! Does it have context from the current page or is it standalone? Curious about the UX integration vs ChatGPT extension.

When for Firefox based browsers? 🤩
