Putting Claude to work on real files

  1. 01What Cowork sees and what it does not see10 min

    The files Cowork reads and modifies are those in the folders you have connected, but its view does not stop at files: depending on how you open it, it also sees your screen.

  2. 02Working on a copy, never on the original5 min

    A file opened directly by Claude in a connected folder is modified in place, not on an invisible copy you would find afterwards.

  3. 03Skills and plugins, specialisation on demand5 min

    A skill is a specialisation loaded to handle a specific domain, a plugin bundles several of them into a single installable package.

  4. 04Connectors, a direct link to a piece of software5 min

    A connector links Claude to an external service after explicit authorisation, and that authorisation holds beyond the current conversation, right up to scheduled tasks.
