Anthropic just shipped an OpenClaw killer called Claude Code Channels, letting you message it over Telegram and Discord - VentureBeat
Overview
Anthropic launched Claude Code Channels to run its Claude Code agent across messaging platforms with multi-channel support and long-term memory, capturing many desirable open-source agent traits while remaining managed. Microsoft’s release of Scout — explicitly modeled on OpenClaw-style agents and integrated into Microsoft 365 — underscores how both managed and platform-integrated approaches are emerging from OpenClaw’s influence. The two moves highlight growing competition between companies offering hosted, multi-channel agent services and those embedding agentic capabilities directly into productivity ecosystems.
