Hey 👋

The question on every feed this week is no longer "which AI do you use?" It is "which agent are you running?"

The Claude Code team is shipping like crazy. Recurring task loops, background agents, multi-agent teams, remote control from your phone, and you can now start brand new sessions straight from the Claude mobile app. These are the same autonomous capabilities that made OpenClaw explode in popularity, but shipped inside a tool backed by a leading frontier lab. And it is not just for developers. Cowork, the Claude Code experience for the rest of us, has been getting better and better since its release in January. We are now using it at GritAI for everyday tasks like research, drafting, and yes, putting together this newsletter.

Notion is also running full steam on agents. With the right connectors and instructions, Notion Custom Agents pretty much solves the Executive Assistant dream that so many teams are chasing. They work while you sleep, pulling from your databases, drafting updates, and handling routine workflows on their own. We use them heavily, and at this point they are posting more than us in our Slack channels. Enjoy them while they are free, though, because pricing changes hit in May 😓

The rest of the industry sees the same opening. Perplexity launched Personal Computer, an always-on agent running on a Mac mini that orchestrates 20+ models and (according to them) replaces entire tool stacks. We finally got our hands on a few Mac minis and are now running OpenClaw, NanoClaw and our own sandboxed Claude Code setup 🤓

Agents are going from demos to daily drivers. From single prompts to multi-step workflows running for hours. From developer tools to something your entire team uses. The conversation has shifted from "can AI do this?" to "which agent should run it?"

William Gibson's quote feels more relevant than ever: "The future is already here - it is just not evenly distributed."

Let us dive in 🏄

AI Pulse 🚨

How to Build Your First MCP App with Claude Code

MCP Apps let your tools render interactive dashboards, forms, and visualizations directly inside Claude and ChatGPT. In this video we build a full MCP App from scratch using Claude Code and the official agent skill — and the same approach works with any agent tool that supports skills, including VS Code Copilot, Goose, Cline, Gemini CLI, Codex, Cursor, and Google Antigravity.

Claude Code Updates This Week 🦀

Here are the highlights from the changelog.

📏 1M context window for Opus 4.6. Available by default on Max, Team, and Enterprise plans. Doubles what was previously available and makes long codebases and large PRs significantly easier to work with.

💬 Tools can now ask you questions mid-task. Instead of guessing, connected tools can pause and ask for clarification through interactive dialogs before continuing.

🎚️ /effort command. Set model reasoning level to low, medium, or high directly from the prompt. Useful for quick lookups versus deep analysis.

🌲 Faster startup on large codebases. New monorepo support lets agents load only the folders they need instead of pulling down the entire repository.

💭 /btw command. Start side conversations while Claude is working. Ask a quick question or give additional context without interrupting the current task.

🧠 Better memory and model control. New settings let you choose where Claude stores its memory files and connect to custom AI providers like AWS Bedrock and Google Vertex.

Claude Code Bootcamp - March 24

Our first Claude Code Bootcamp is almost here — and we cannot wait!

March 24 at Mesh Oslo. A full day of hands-on Claude Code, and no, you do not need to know how to code.

The group taking shape is a great mix: founders, tech leads, advisors, and operational leaders from finance, maritime tech, media, and consulting. Some are developers, most are not. That is exactly the kind of group this is built for.

If you are a project manager, consultant, analyst, lawyer, researcher, marketer, or founder who wants to seriously level up your output, this is your day. Just bring a laptop and an open mind 💻

A few spots left. Newsletter subscribers get 20% off with code CCGRITAI03.
