Isn't this just a UI over Claude Code? For most people, using the terminal means you could switch to many different coding CLIs and not be locked into just Claude.

It will be interesting for me, trying to figure out how to differentiate from Claude Cowork in a meaningful way, but theres a lot of room here for competition, and no one application is likely to be "the best" at this. Having said that, I am sure Claude will be the category leader for quite a while, with first mover advantage.
I'm currently rolling out my alpha, and am looking for investment & partners.
Claude Code is very good at `doc = f(doc, incremental_input)` where doc is a code file. It's no different if doc is a _prompt file_ designed to encapsulate best practices.
Hand it a set of unstructured SOP documents, give it access to an MCP for your email, and have it gradually grow a set of skills that you can then bring together as a knowledge base auto-responder instruction-set.
Then, unlike many opaque "knowledge-base AI" products, you can inspect exactly how over-fitted those instructions are, and ask it to iterate.
What I haven't tried is whether Cowork will auto-compact as it goes through that data set, and/or take max-context-sized chunks and give them to a sub-agent who clears its memory between each chunk. Assuming it does, it could be immensely powerful for many use cases.

I assumed we are talking about IT professionals using tools like claude here? But even for normal people it's not really hard if they manage to leave the cage in their head behind that is ms windows. My father is 77 now and only started using computer abover age 60, never touched windows thanks to me, and has absolutely no problems using (and administrating at this point) it all by himself
This doesn't answer the question, like, at all.

Indeed there are and this is no rocket science. Like Word Documents offer a change history, deleted files go to the trash first, there are undo functions, TimeMachine on MacOs, similar features on Windows, even sandbox features.
Trash is a shell feature. Unless a program explicitly "moves to trash", deleting is final. Same for Word documents. So, no, there is no undo in general. There could be under certain circumstances for certain things.

People do realize that if they're doing this, they're not feeding "just" code into some probably logging cloud API but literally anything (including, as mentioned here, bank statements), right? Right? RIGHT?????? Are you sure that you need to grant the cloud full access to your desktop + all of its content to sort elements alphabetically?
Some do, some don't. The reality is there are some of us who truly just don't care. The convenience outweighs the negative. Yesterday I told an agent, "here's my api key and my root password - do it for me". Privacy has long since been dead, but at least for myself opsec for personal work is too.
