Anthropic adds a 'Record a Skill' feature to Claude Cowork, allowing users to teach AI to perform repetitive tasks through screen recording and voice narration, saving them as reusable skills.
According to a report by X user Xiao Hu, Anthropic has introduced a new feature for Claude Cowork that allows users to teach Claude a skill by recording their screen and narrating their actions. This feature is similar to Codex's screen learning operation method.
When performing repetitive tasks, users can record the screen and explain as they go, and Claude will learn these operations and convert them into a reusable skill.
The feature entry is located under the '+' menu in the Claude desktop app, with the option 'Record a skill'. After starting the recording, Claude observes the screen operations and listens to the narration to learn the task workflow.
Once learning is complete, the skill is saved. Next time, users simply tell Claude 'Run this skill', and Claude will mimic the user's previous operations and execute them automatically.
This report is based on a post by X user Xiao Hu and is a third-party retelling, not officially confirmed by Anthropic. Feature details and availability may change.
Claude Cowork's screen recording skill learning feature provides users with a low-barrier automation method, allowing AI to learn repetitive tasks through demonstration and narration, but note that this information has not been officially confirmed.
