Anthropic just changed how AI coding tools will be used

Anthropic just changed how AI coding tools will be used.

They introduced Claude Code channels.

The core shift is simple:

From one AI session
→ multiple scoped contexts

feature dev
debugging
infra
experiments

Each with its own memory and rules.

This moves AI from assistant
→ workspace architecture

You’re no longer prompting.
You’re routing work.

It aligns with what projects like OpenClaw are exploring:

Composable workflows
Clear boundaries
Agents with focused context

The advantage is shifting:

From prompting skill
→ system design

Most will use this as a feature.
A few will treat it as infrastructure.

That gap compounds.
