243243A group DM is a Slack direct message among several people. When members add Claude to one, Claude acts with its own [service accounts](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity), and the work bills to your organization's [usage balance](/docs/claude-tag/admins/set-spend-limit). [Use Claude Tag in a group DM](/docs/claude-tag/users/group-dms) covers what members can do there.
244244 
245Claude works in group DMs on the Team plan, and for some organizations on the Enterprise plan. No admin setting makes Claude work in group DMs for an organization. If Claude doesn't work in group DMs for your organization, it answers a top-level `@Claude` mention in a group DM with the notice ["Group DMs aren't supported yet"](/docs/claude-tag/users/troubleshooting#group-dms-aren%E2%80%99t-supported-yet).
246 
247245A group DM has no [scope](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/glossary#scope) of its own, so you can't attach an [Access bundle](/docs/claude-tag/admins/attach-to-scope) to one group DM or turn Claude off in one. You control every group DM in a workspace together:
248246 
249247* **Access.** Claude works with the Access bundles, instructions, and repositories on the workspace's scope and on **Default Slack access**.
from line 254
256254 
257255Who is in a group DM, and how Slack shares it, can change whether Claude answers:
258256 
259* **A Slack guest is in the group DM.** In a workspace outside Enterprise Grid, Claude follows the [**How should Claude work in channels with guests**](#restrict-guest-channels) value on the workspace's scope or on **Default Slack access**. Under the default, **Restrict**, Claude posts its guest notice instead of an answer. Under **Channel only**, Claude runs with [channel-only access](#how-channel-only-works) and can't set up [routines](/docs/claude-tag/users/proactivity). Under **Full access**, Claude answers.
257* **A Slack guest is in the group DM.** In a workspace outside Enterprise Grid, Claude follows the [**How should Claude work in channels with guests**](#restrict-guest-channels) value on the workspace's scope or on **Default Slack access**. Under the default, **Restrict**, Claude posts its guest notice instead of an answer. Under **Channel only**, Claude runs with [channel-only access](#how-channel-only-works). Under **Full access**, Claude answers.
260258* **Someone from another company is in the group DM, through Slack Connect.** Claude doesn't answer, and no setting changes that.
261* **Slack shares the group DM across the workspaces of an Enterprise Grid.** Claude doesn't answer, whoever is in the group DM.
259* **On Enterprise Grid, the people in the group DM share no workspace.** Claude doesn't answer.

from line 477
479477* **Third-party deployment.** Claude Tag runs on Anthropic's first-party service; it isn't available through third-party deployments.
480478* **Renaming or rebranding the app.** The Claude app's name, @-handle, and avatar in Slack are fixed; there is no per-workspace rename setting.
481479* **Per-user spend caps on channel work.** Spend limits apply at the organization and channel level. There's no way to cap what one member can spend in channels; one-to-one DM usage from a member who has connected a Claude account bills to that member's own seat and follows the seat's usual limits.
482* **A switch for group DMs alone, or settings for one group DM.** You can't attach a bundle to one group DM, turn Claude off in one, or stop group DMs without also stopping one-to-one DMs or the workspace's channels. See [Group DMs](#group-dms).
480* **A switch for group DMs alone, or settings for one group DM.** You can't attach a bundle to one group DM, turn Claude off in one, or stop Claude from answering in group DMs without also stopping it in one-to-one DMs or the workspace's channels. See [Group DMs](#group-dms).
483481* **Per-channel responder allowlist.** The restriction toggle governs who can invoke Claude across the workspace; you can't narrow it to a list of people for one channel only.
484482* **An open-internet switch in Claude Tag settings.** A channel sandbox reaches only allowed hosts. To let Claude reach a public site or API, an Owner or a [Claude Tag admin](#delegate-claude-tag-administration) adds that hostname on a [bundle's Domains tab](/docs/claude-tag/admins/add-connections#allow-a-host-without-a-credential); for broad web access, an Owner pins an [environment](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/glossary#environment) whose network access level is Full access on the scope. [Allow-all egress](/docs/claude-tag/admins/add-connections#allow-all-hosts), a `*` entry on the Domains tab, admits any host on the ports it lists.
485483* **A web search toggle for channels.** No setting turns web search off for channel sessions; the web search capability setting in claude.ai admin settings governs claude.ai chat, not channels. Web search runs on Anthropic's servers rather than from the channel sandbox, so Domains entries and egress settings don't govern it, and a search opens no new path out of the sandbox; search requests travel to Anthropic the same way the session's model traffic already does. See [Web search vs. network requests](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity#web-search-vs-network-requests).

7777A direct-message conversation with Claude is stored the same way a channel thread is, as a session with a transcript, together with the notes Claude keeps for that conversation. Both are deleted with the workspace the member messaged Claude from, when that workspace is disconnected or the app is uninstalled from it, and when your Claude organization is deleted. They aren't deleted when the member selects **Disconnect** in Slack, when the member's Claude account is deleted on a Team or Enterprise plan, or when an Owner turns off direct messages.

8181When a member first opens a direct message with Claude, the welcome Claude writes, which suggests channels based on the member's recent public-channel activity, runs as a short session that is stored like any other.

7575On the Team plan, Claude Tag doesn't apply the [`availableModels` allowlist](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config#restrict-model-selection) from your Claude Code [server-managed settings](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/server-managed-settings), and on the Enterprise plan it applies the allowlist in only some organizations.

7777* **Where the allowlist doesn't apply**: Claude offers your organization's full Claude Tag model list, both when someone asks it to switch and in the model selector for direct messages. It starts sessions on a scope's **Default model** without checking that model against the allowlist. The **Default model** picker in admin settings still lists only allowed models.
78* **Where the allowlist applies**: sessions in a channel run as the [agent identity](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity) you provisioned and without your server-managed settings. When someone in a channel asks Claude to switch models, Claude may decline a model outside the allowlist, though that check doesn't always run. In direct messages from a member whose linked Claude account belongs to your organization, Claude runs on that member's own account, which receives your allowlist; see [Restrict model selection](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/model-config#restrict-model-selection) for what happens to a model the allowlist blocks.

2525* **Someone else asks in a channel.** Your connectors serve only you. Their request doesn't control or use your connectors, even in a shared channel.
2626* **Claude starts work on its own.** [Routines](/docs/claude-tag/users/proactivity) and other work Claude starts on its own in a channel use the channel's connections, never your connectors.
27* **You ask in a [group DM](/docs/claude-tag/users/group-dms).** Claude asks you before it uses your connectors, and only your own requests use them.
27* **You ask in a [group DM](/docs/claude-tag/users/group-dms).** Claude uses your connectors after you allow it, and only your own requests use them.
2828* **You ask in a one-to-one direct message (DM).** Your connectors apply on their own, because a DM runs on [your own claude.ai account](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity#direct-message-channels).

Every DM message reaches Claude without an @-mention. You can also DM Claude questions about getting started, like how to word a task or what to try first.
1818 * Example: `Pull my afternoon meetings from my calendar and draft a one-line prep note for each.`
19* **Group DM** for shared work among a few people, without creating a channel. Claude uses the access an admin set for the workspace and the organization, and the work bills to the organization. Claude works in group DMs on the Team plan, and for some organizations on the Enterprise plan. See [Use Claude Tag in a group DM](/docs/claude-tag/users/group-dms).
