What Claude Desktop is.
Claude Desktop is Anthropic’s native application for macOS, Windows and Linux. It extends the web version with local skills, knowledge bases and, above all, Model Context Protocol servers. That sounds technical, but it has a tangible effect day to day: you no longer write into a walled-off chat window, but with an application that knows your tools.
My promise to you: I set up Claude Desktop so that you understand it on Monday, use it productively on Tuesday, and will not want to miss it by Friday.
