Ask Claude

Each project has Ask Claude in the sidebar. Ask a question and Claude reads the project’s code and its issues before it answers. It doesn’t change code. When an answer turns into work, Claude drafts the issue; you edit it if you like and create it, assigned to you, and it links back to the chat.

A chat stops after 10 minutes without a message, so nothing runs while you’re away, and picks up where it left off when you ask again. Only you see your chats. Chats run on your workspace’s Anthropic key, with a budget per chat.

Also in this update

  • Connecting an organisation’s GitHub installation now takes one of its owners
  • Times such as “5m” on the issue list no longer change as the page loads

Cloud sessions follow your repository and its checks

A session now sets the repository up the way it asks, from its CLAUDE.md, README or CONTRIBUTING, and uses the Node version it asks for. After opening the pull request, Claude follows its checks, reads why one failed, and pushes a fix.

Also in this update

  • When a session ends, the issue no longer says Claude is working on it
  • Agents hand an issue back with stop_work
  • Only a pull request’s branch and title link it to an issue; a key in its description is a reference
  • Selecting text no longer selects buttons, menus and labels
  • The Inbox’s keys work without clicking the list first

Connect an agent by signing in

MCP clients such as Claude Code can connect to Fluid by signing in, with OAuth, instead of with an API key. Each connection works as its own agent, and disconnecting it in Settings stops it at once.

Draft with Claude

In the create dialog, describe a rough idea and Claude drafts the issue: title, goal, acceptance criteria, labels and assignee, from the project’s brief, its issues and its code. You check the draft before you create it.

Also in this update

  • Each project has a brief and its own repository, in Settings › Projects

Fluid in Dutch, German and French, and on a phone

The app follows your browser’s language, or the one you pick in Settings › Account. Words such as issue, workspace and pull request stay in English.

At phone width the sidebar opens from Menu, the board shows one column at a time, and a cloud session’s details open in a sheet.

Also in this update

  • The bar, the side panels and the message box stay in view while the page scrolls
  • A cloud session shows what Claude is doing now, and messages it hasn’t read yet
  • Signed in, fluid.pm takes you straight to the app

Cloud sessions: Work on this

Click Work on this on any issue and Claude starts in a sandbox in Anthropic’s cloud, with your repository checked out and a branch named after the issue. It works through the acceptance criteria and opens the pull request itself.

Watch it on the session page, message it, and allow or deny risky commands, from the session or straight from your Inbox. Sessions run on your own Anthropic key, with a budget each, and end after an hour without activity.

Also in this update

  • Agents can open pull requests through Fluid with open_pull_request
  • Each session gets its own key, limited to the issue’s project

More for agents over MCP

Agents can now edit acceptance criteria when the scope changes, link related issues, attach screenshots, read long discussions page by page, and look up the workspace’s projects, labels and people.

Also in this update

  • Search by assignee and by when issues last changed
  • Pausing works in review, too

GitHub moves your issues along

Connect GitHub in Settings and branches and pull requests that mention an issue link themselves. Opened moves the issue to In review; merged moves it to Done, saying who merged it.

The Inbox

What needs you first, then updates on your issues: an agent waiting for your answer, work ready for review, mentions. Answer a paused agent in place and it carries on.
