Anthropic releases a Claude for Nonprofits plugin with fundraising, marketing and hiring skills built with ~30 organizations
On Oct 26 Anthropic released the Claude for Nonprofits plugin, a set of skills and connectors built with about 30 nonprofits. It covers the full fundraising cycle (finding funders, breaking down RFPs, drafting proposals and reports, donor stewardship), marketing, hiring and board work, and starts by having Claude map where the organization keeps its records and answer questions against the organization's own AI policy. It is installed automatically at no extra cost for verified nonprofits on Team and Enterprise plans. Anthropic says more than 25,000 nonprofits use Claude, and over 75% of them have fewer than 10 seats.

Anthropic adds two sentences to Claude Code's Opus 5.5 prompt to steer it away from recreating specific existing games; original and genre games still allowed
Around Oct 27, users noticed Claude Code receiving a new server-side rule (flag name tengu_heron_brook): build original games, games in a genre, and games from the user's own designs and assets, but do not build a recreation of a specific existing game, even if it is renamed or called original. The post that surfaced it drew about 8,700 likes and nearly 2 million views on Oct 30. The same day, Addy Osmani, who works on Claude Code at Anthropic, confirmed on X that the team added two sentences to Claude Code's prompt on Opus 5.5 because using Claude to infringe IP is against Anthropic's usage policy. He said original games, genre games, and games built from your own designs and assets should keep working, that the team will keep iterating, and that users can send him wrongly refused requests.
