Executive summary
You will learn how Cowork works and how to set up the folder and context files that make it effective. End state is a complete personal Cowork setup: folder structure, three context files, global instructions, and one real task delivered. After this module you can delegate multi-step file work to Claude with one-line prompts, because your context does the explaining.
Learning objectives
- Explain what Cowork is and how it differs from chat and Projects
- Build the standard Cowork folder structure (context, outputs, templates)
- Write three core context files (about-me, writing style, my-company)
- Set global instructions so Claude reads the right files automatically
- Run a first full Cowork task end to end
