2525## Channel memory

27Facts Claude retains while working in a channel, including facts you told it to remember and notes it writes itself. Entries from public channels are shared across the workspace; entries from private channels are saved to that channel's own store. See [What Claude Tag remembers](/docs/claude-tag/users/memory).

From a public channel Claude can also save workspace notes, which it reads in every channel in the workspace. See [What Claude Tag remembers](/docs/claude-tag/users/memory).

38| Proactive work | None | Routines and channel watching |

4040Your admin chooses which generation answers `@Claude` in a given channel, so two channels in the same workspace can work differently. See [Migrate from the earlier Claude in Slack](/docs/claude-tag/admins/workspaces#set-the-version-for-a-scope).

4444A credential for one external service that Claude uses on the channel's behalf, like a Datadog API key or a GitHub App installation. Connections belong to the agent identity, not to any user, and are grouped into [Access bundles](#access-bundle) by an admin.

46A connection is not a connector. A connector belongs to your personal claude.ai account. A channel session uses the channel's connections. In organizations where [personal connectors in channels](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/personal-connectors) is available, Claude can also use your connectors there for your own tasks, after you allow it. A DM uses your own account instead, as [how DMs work in this model](/docs/claude-tag/concepts/agent-identity#direct-message-channels) describes.
