1919Saving a comment doesn't send it. Pending comments appear above the message box and are sent with your next message. This lets you batch several comments and send them together, or send them one at a time. Claude receives each comment with its filename, the quoted selection (or marked image), and your note.
2020
21On an image, you can click **Ask** instead of **Save** to send the comment to a side chat, a separate conversation that starts from the current one. The new comment goes with any other comments waiting above the message box:
22
23* If the conversation has messages and no side chat is open, a side chat starts and the comments are sent right away.
24* If a side chat is already open, the comments appear above the side chat's message box and are sent with your next message there.
25* If the conversation has no messages yet, no side chat starts, and the comments are sent with your next message.
26
27If you click **Ask** without typing a comment, the comment reads "What's going on here?"
28
2129Once sent, comments leave the artifact and appear as cards on the message. Comments don't have threads or a resolve state. To revise an artifact again after Claude updates it, comment on the new version.
2230
2331Limits: comment text is capped at 1,000 characters. Comments aren't included in downloads and don't appear in **Files**.

7171
72When the app opens, sign in with your Claude account. On Windows, click the **Sign in on the web** button and confirm with **Continue**; the app opens claude.ai in your default browser and continues in the app window once you approve the sign-in there. If the sign-in redirect can't return to the app (for example, through an SSH tunnel), use the **Paste code instead** option on the sign-in screen. No API key is required.

7373
74If you approve the sign-in in your browser but Claude Science doesn't continue (for example, on a remote server when the sign-in can't return through the SSH tunnel), sign in with a code instead:
75
761. Go back to the Claude Science sign-in screen and select **Paste code instead**, then **Open on web**.
772. Approve access in the browser, then copy the whole code the page shows.
783. Paste the code into Claude Science. If the sign-in doesn't continue on its own, select **Continue**.
79
7480After sign-in, a setup wizard walks you through enabling connectors and skills, setting which websites Claude can access, and choosing whether memory is on. You can change these at any time in Settings.

9399 Deleting the data folder (`~/.claude-science`, or `%USERPROFILE%\.claude-science` on Windows) removes all your projects, artifacts, conversation history, environments, and settings, and signs you out. Copy anything you want to keep first, with **Download** on an artifact or by copying the project's folder from inside the data folder.
94100
95 If you moved your data to another folder, check where it is under **Settings > Storage > Data location** before you uninstall. The environments and the sign-in stay in the default folder even then, so to remove all your data, delete both folders. First check that the folder you moved your data to holds nothing else you want to keep. Files in the folders you granted Claude access to aren't affected unless they're inside the folder you moved your data to.
101 Before you uninstall, check where your data is under **Settings > Storage > Data location**. If it shows a folder other than the default, the default folder still holds your environments and your sign-in, and it can also hold projects from before that location was set. To remove all your data:
102
103 * The folder that **Data location** shows holds your current projects. Move anything else you stored there yourself out of it, then delete that folder.
104 * Delete the default folder (`~/.claude-science`, or `%USERPROFILE%\.claude-science` on Windows).
105
106 Files in the folders you granted Claude access to aren't affected unless they're inside the folder that **Data location** shows.

123134 <Step title="Uninstall the app">
124 In Windows **Settings**, go to **Apps > Installed apps** and uninstall **Claude Science**. To remove the app and your data together, run `claude-science uninstall --purge` in a terminal instead.
135 In Windows **Settings**, go to **Apps > Installed apps** and uninstall **Claude Science**, or run `claude-science uninstall` in a terminal.
125136
126 If you changed the data location in **Settings > Storage > Data location**, `--purge` deletes that entire folder, including any files in it that Claude Science didn't create. Move those files out first. `--purge` also leaves `%USERPROFILE%\.claude-science` behind for you to delete.
137 To remove the app and your data together, use `claude-science uninstall --purge` instead. It deletes the whole folder your data location points to, including anything you stored there yourself, so move those files out first.
138
139 When your data location isn't `%USERPROFILE%\.claude-science`, `--purge` leaves that folder in place. It still holds your environments and your sign-in, and it can also hold projects from before that location was set. To remove those too, delete `%USERPROFILE%\.claude-science` yourself.

160173* On macOS, some of Claude's tools can't start and the error mentions the Xcode license, usually right after an Xcode update: macOS won't run the Python that comes with Apple's developer tools until the license is accepted. Open Xcode and agree to the license with an administrator account, or run `sudo xcodebuild -license accept` in Terminal, then ask Claude to try again.
161174* A Claude Science message on Windows says the app was not installed because the file could not be confirmed: the copy you opened still runs but isn't installed. Download the installer again from [claude.com/product/claude-science](https://claude.com/product/claude-science) and open the new file. If the message persists, the PC could not verify the publisher's signature, so ask your IT team.
162175* The Windows app reports that it couldn't set up the app window engine: the first launch downloads that engine from `downloads.claude.ai`, and this usually means the app couldn't reach it. Check the internet connection, and on a corporate network ask IT to allow that domain (see [Network requirements](/docs/claude-science/network-requirements)).
176* On Linux, the installer stops with `The download service may be unreachable, or not yet available in your region`: the installer couldn't get the latest version from `storage.googleapis.com`. Check the internet connection, and on a corporate network ask IT to allow that domain (see [Network requirements](/docs/claude-science/network-requirements#app-connections)). Claude Science is available where Anthropic offers claude.ai. See [Supported countries and regions](https://www.anthropic.com/supported-countries).
163177* On Linux, the shell reports `command not found` for `claude-science`: `~/.local/bin` isn't on your PATH. Add the PATH line that the installer printed to your shell profile, then open a new terminal.
164178* On Linux, `claude-science serve` stops with `Sandbox unavailable: bwrap not found on PATH`: bubblewrap isn't installed, or isn't on your PATH. Install bubblewrap and socat with the command for your distribution in the Linux tab of [Install](#install).
165179* On Linux, `claude-science serve` stops with `Sandbox unavailable: bwrap too old`: the installed bubblewrap is older than 0.8.0. Check the version with `bwrap --version`, then upgrade bubblewrap. Ubuntu 24.04's repositories carry a new enough version and Ubuntu 22.04's don't.
from line 181
167181* On Linux, an error says `socat is required for Linux sandbox networking but was not found in PATH`: socat isn't installed, or isn't on your PATH. Install socat with the command for your distribution in the Linux tab of [Install](#install).
168182* Projects from another computer don't appear: by design, Claude Science keeps your work on the computer where it's installed, so each computer starts with its own projects. Your earlier projects are still on the other computer. See [Use Claude Science on more than one computer](/docs/claude-science/multiple-computers).
169183* Projects you created under another sign-in on this computer don't appear automatically, for example, after you move from a personal plan to your organization's Team plan: your earlier projects are still in that sign-in's folder. Select the **Review** button on the banner at the top of the home screen, or select **Review** next to **Access previously saved Claude Science work on this computer** under **Settings** > **General** > **Account**, to access them. On Team and Enterprise plans, if there's no banner and the setting is grayed out, your admin controls it. See [Access work from another sign-in on your computer](/docs/claude-science/multiple-computers#access-work-from-another-sign-in-on-your-computer).
170* Sign-in stops at claude.ai: your account is on the Free plan (upgrade required), the redirect couldn't return (use Paste a code), or your Team or Enterprise organization hasn't [enabled Claude Science](/docs/claude-science/enable-claude-science) yet.
184* Sign-in stops at claude.ai: your account is on the Free plan (upgrade required), the redirect couldn't return (use **Paste code instead**), or your Team or Enterprise organization hasn't [enabled Claude Science](/docs/claude-science/enable-claude-science) yet.
185* After you paste a code, Claude Science says the code wasn't recognized or was issued for an earlier sign-in attempt: select **Open on web** again, approve access, and paste the whole new code. If it says `PKCE state missing or expired` instead, select **Back** and follow the steps in [Sign in and complete setup](#sign-in-and-complete-setup) again.

2727## Requirements
2828
2929* A Claude account on a Pro, Max, Team, or Enterprise plan. On Team and Enterprise plans, an Owner must [enable Claude Science for the organization](/docs/claude-science/enable-claude-science) first.
30* A country or region where Anthropic offers claude.ai. See [Supported countries and regions](https://www.anthropic.com/supported-countries).
3031* macOS 13 or later (Apple silicon or Intel), Windows 11 (x64), or Linux x64 on a glibc-based distribution.
3132* About 5 GB of free disk space for the runtime and starter environments.
3233* On Linux: socat, bubblewrap 0.8.0 or later, and unprivileged user namespaces permitted by the kernel.

4849On plans with usage limits, there's a limit that resets every 5 hours and a weekly limit. As you approach one, Claude Science asks whether the session should continue. For the 5-hour limit, you can choose **Keep going** or hold the session until the limit resets. For the weekly limit, the warning offers only **Keep going**.
4950
50* **Without usage credits or extra usage, when the reset is less than 8 hours away.** The session pauses, and the composer shows when it will resume. Your conversation, files, and artifacts are kept. As long as Claude Science stays open, the session picks up where it left off when the limit resets.
51* **Without usage credits or extra usage, when the reset is less than 8 hours away.** The session pauses, and the composer shows when it will resume. As long as Claude Science stays open, the session picks up where it left off when the limit resets.
5152* **Without usage credits or extra usage, when the reset is more than 8 hours away.** The session pauses for up to 8 hours, then stops and shows when the limit resets. This can happen at a weekly limit. To continue after the reset, select **Resume** or send a message.
5253* **At the limit, with usage credits or extra usage turned on.** By default, Claude Science asks whether to keep going on your usage credits or extra usage. Until you answer, the session waits. If you choose not to continue, the session waits for the reset, or stops if the reset is more than 8 hours away.
54
55In each of these cases, your conversation and artifacts are kept.

18Claude Science is no longer signed in to your Claude account, so it can't send your message.
18Claude Science can't use your Claude sign-in right now, so it can't send your message. Your sign-in may have ended, or a network or server problem may have stopped Claude Science from renewing it automatically.
1919
2020* If a "You've been signed out" notice appears, select **Sign in** on it, then send your message again.
2121* If the whole window shows "You've been signed out." instead, follow the step that page names to continue.
22* If neither appears, select the gear icon and choose **Sign out**, then confirm with **Sign out**. Signing out stops any sessions that are still running. Sign in again and send your message.
22* If neither appears, wait a moment and send your message again.
23* If the error comes back, sign out and sign in again. Signing out stops any sessions that are still running. Open the account menu (the gear icon at the bottom of the sidebar inside a project, or the account icon at the top right of the home screen), choose **Sign out**, and confirm with **Sign out**. Then sign in and send your message again.
2324
2425If you see "Your Claude session is no longer valid. Please sign out and sign in again." instead, sign out and sign in again the same way.

26To have conda and pip download packages from an internal mirror instead, see [Point package installs at an internal mirror](/docs/claude-science/corporate-networks#point-package-installs-at-an-internal-mirror).
27
2628A package installed into an environment is permanent and available in every session and project using that environment. A package installed inline in a code cell (`pip install` or `install.packages()`) lasts only until the kernel restarts. To keep a package, ask Claude to install it into the environment.
2729
2830For tools without a package, Claude downloads source, builds it in the sandbox with compilers from conda-forge, and saves the build as an artifact for reuse.
2931
30The sandbox has no root access or system package manager. `apt` and `sudo` aren't available; Claude uses conda-forge or builds from source instead. Package sources can't be redirected to a different server.
