feat: add Computer Use, Remote Control, Auto Mode, and Cowork integration

Major update based on Anthropic's March 24, 2026 releases:

- feature-map.md: expanded from 20 to 22 capabilities, gaps reduced
  from 2 to 1 (only Canvas/A2UI remains)
- examples/11-computer-use: desktop control via screenshots and clicks
- examples/12-remote-control: /rc and Dispatch for phone control
- examples/13-auto-mode: AI safety classifier for autonomous execution
- cowork-integration/: how Code + Cowork + Dispatch together replicate
  OpenClaw's full feature set
- security/auto-mode-explained.md: deep-dive on the new permission mode
- Updated README with broader ecosystem table and revised scores

Score: 12 full match (55%), 9 different approach (41%), 1 gap (4%)

# Example 11: Computer Use
Demonstrate Claude Code's ability to control your desktop: open
apps, click buttons, fill forms, take screenshots. This is the
capability that made people say "Anthropic just killed OpenClaw."
**OpenClaw equivalent:** Browser automation + macOS/iOS/Android
companion apps with screen control.
**Requirements:**
- Claude Code Desktop app (not CLI-only)
- macOS with Accessibility and Screen Recording permissions granted
- Computer Use enabled in Settings > Desktop app > General
- Pro or Max plan
## The prompt
```
Open Safari, navigate to Hacker News, take a screenshot of the
front page, then open TextEdit and write a summary of the top
5 stories with their point counts. Save the file as
hn-summary-today.txt on the Desktop.
```
## What happens
1. Claude takes control of your screen (golden border appears)
2. Opens Safari, navigates to news.ycombinator.com
3. Takes a screenshot to read the page content
4. Opens TextEdit (or creates a new document)
5. Types the summary with story titles and point counts
6. Saves the file to your Desktop
## How this compares to OpenClaw
OpenClaw controls the browser via CDP/Playwright (programmatic).
Its macOS/iOS companion apps can interact with the desktop.
Claude Code Computer Use controls the screen like a human:
screenshots, mouse clicks, keyboard input. It is slower but
works with any application, not just browsers.
## Limitations (honest)
- Research preview. Expect rough edges.
- macOS only (for now)
- Slower than Playwright for browser-only tasks
- Cannot interact with apps that block screen recording
- Some actions cannot be undone (the macOS permission warning
is real)
For browser-only automation, Playwright MCP (example 04) is
faster and more reliable. Computer Use shines when you need to
interact with native desktop apps that have no API or CLI.
