Claude Code gains Computer Use directly from the terminal

Written by Paid Media Collective
IN BRIEF

Charly Wargnier has flagged that Claude Code now supports Computer Use directly from the terminal, enabling Claude to compile and launch macOS apps (SwiftUI or Electron), click through the UI to verify fixes, and complete tasks that previously required leaving the terminal. The feature is enabled via the /mcp command and requires macOS with a Pro or Max plan.
