Anthropic announced general availability on August 20. Computer use now takes several actions per turn (click, type, key, screenshot) rather than one per round trip, which early-access customers measured as 20-40% fewer round trips per task. The new browser use tool gives Claude the page structure instead of pixels so automations survive layout changes, the Skills API adds versioning with per-request pinning to a version or `latest`, and the Files API adds expiring files, 5x higher rate limits at 500 RPM, and 1 TB of storage per org.
