Inline visualizations ​

Claude can draw a chart, a diagram or a small interactive widget right in its reply.

How to use ​

  1. Ask for a picture: "visualize monthly sales as a bar chart".
  2. Claude writes the drawing to a file in the session's uploads folder and shows it in the chat. While it is written you see "Drawing visualization…"; the drawing appears when the block is complete. Deleting the session deletes the file: its old replies then show the file as unavailable.
  3. Show code above the drawing swaps it for its source.

Switch it off in Settings › Sessions › Chat. It applies to sessions started or resumed after the change. Off: the drawings show as code.

Good to know ​

  • The drawing runs in a sandboxed frame. It cannot read the app, your files, cookies or storage, and cannot make network requests. Scripts load only inline or from cdn.jsdelivr.net, cdnjs.cloudflare.com and unpkg.com.
  • A script in the drawing could still put data into the address of a CDN script. Claude can already write files, so this adds little, but know it.
  • It follows the light/dark theme and the colour theme.
  • It works on Docker, WSL and SSH sides (after the side updates to this build) and with the OpenCode engine. OpenCode gets the guidance with each prompt, so a change of the setting applies from the next prompt.
