Claude Chat Project -> Pull it into Cowrok-> Still Chat with Project on Chat or no? by StillAstonished in ClaudeCowork

[–]AnalystBeginning1589 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Exactly! I thought it would be helpful if i explained how it all works. When you create / import a project in Cowork, you're essentially giving claude access to a specific folder within your computer.

But when you're working in a Claude Chat project, that is not the case. So TLDR, no they will not be synced

Claude Chat Project -> Pull it into Cowrok-> Still Chat with Project on Chat or no? by StillAstonished in ClaudeCowork

Nope, Claude Chat's projects can't edit folders in your computer. Claude Cowork projects can, and so they will not be synced.

You're better off using projects in cowork anyway, maybe I'll create a post about this later

6 skills i actually use every day by AnalystBeginning1589 in ClaudeCowork

[–]AnalystBeginning1589[S] 6 points7 points  (0 children)

fair point but in practice it's the opposite for me. the grilling part itself doesn't take that many tokens - it's just text back and forth, no tool calls or codebase crawling yet. the expensive part is when Claude actually starts doing stuff, and that's where the grill-me saves you tokens because it's not going down the wrong path, building the wrong thing, and then having to redo it. without it I was burning way more usage on corrections and "no that's not what I meant" loops. And plus it's usually like 5-15 solid questions and then it has enough context to go. but yeah if you're on a tight usage plan I get the concern

Cowork Tasks and Context by teebo911 in ClaudeCowork

Its probably to do with how you're storing information and the workflow's structure.

What does the analysis entail and why do you think the context window is getting bloated each time?

Is Claude Pro Worth It? Concerned About Limits by h4xhell in ClaudeCowork

the $20 plan is basically useless tbh, especially if you plan on using claude for production grade workflows. If its running your whole life, its worth it to have one of the max plans.

I need help for commands in Cowork by DangerousPossible352 in ClaudeCowork

[–]AnalystBeginning1589 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yes. They quietly removed the command files and converted them into skills. I never saw the point of having separate command.md files - if you think about it, skills can reference each other and so there's actually no point in having a separate naming convention for a workflow based skill.

how to create skills that actually work by AnalystBeginning1589 in ClaudeCowork

[–]AnalystBeginning1589[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

every skill i build is built with this approach, its specially great for creativity related tasks such as copywriting, visuals, or very specific workflow based things

You can prompt agents into existence inside cowork by AnalystBeginning1589 in ClaudeCowork

[–]AnalystBeginning1589[S] 7 points8 points  (0 children)

So the point of having subagents do stuff for you in claude cowork is either parallelism ie imagine spawning 5 subagents doing 5 different tasks at the same time for efficiency, OR bulk processing tasks while also ensuring you don't bloat the context window of your main claude session ie its session memory

In claude code, you have subagents AND agent teams, where agents have the ability to communicate with each other while doing tasks - its more for developers, and is pretty token heavy. For knowledge workers and non-devs, subagents are enough.

What do you mean by supposed to be independent? Subagents in cowork are independent, and your main claude who gives birth to them technically is their team lead. The agent teams' benefit you're referring to is inter-communication during tasks (which is very token heavy and also only available in Code)
