 For tasks that stay inside webpages, the [browser use tool](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/browser-use-tool) is the closer fit: its member tools read and act on the page itself, and it doesn't need a full desktop environment.
 
 <Note>
-  Computer use is available on the Claude API as the `computer_toolset_20260801` toolset, with no beta header; see [Compatibility](https://platform.claude.com/docs/en/agents-and-tools/tool-use/computer-use-tool#compatibility) for the supported models.
