Anthropic Toolchain

The cowork-first-60-minutes module gives every user the same walkthrough. This one branches by role. Pick yours, install the three things at the end of the branch, come back next week and tell us how it went. If your role isn't listed, pick the closest — most setups overlap more than they differ.

The Cowork deep-dive page tells you what every layer is. This module gets you to your first useful result. Six steps, roughly ten minutes each, ending with a routine that fires tomorrow morning whether or not you open the app again.

Eight mistakes that show up in nearly every new Cowork user's first month — the fix for each, the underlying pattern (scope creep, trust drift, duplication), and the one procedural rule that prevents most of them.

Anthropic's agentic desktop app for knowledge work: skills, plugins, connectors, scheduled tasks, artifacts, folder access, and the Claude in Chrome bridge. How to get started without overdoing it.

A deep dive on Claude Code: the CLI, Plan Mode, skills, subagents, hooks, slash commands, MCP, and plugins. What each layer is for, and the loop that uses them well.

Picking between Anthropic's two agentic surfaces: when to reach for Claude Code, when to reach for Cowork, and the strategic insight that they share primitives.

Using Cowork and Claude Code together to design and build apps. Cowork as the strategy layer, Claude Code as the execution layer, the six-phase pattern, and the one anti-pattern that wrecks it.
