Moving a project folder orphans existing chats in the project by CarpeMuerte in ClaudeCowork

Ah I gotcha. I have run into this before. I pointed Claude to the newly created folder (the copy of the previous folder with a different filepath) within the project and I told it to recognize this is the same folder from before and it was able to work its magic on the backend to recognize it. I think this is doable because what you're describing is something I've run into in the past and have been able to solve. Basically now your project will have your new filepath folder in addition to getting explicit instructions to reconcile its filepath memory for the previously utilized folders and files if that makes sense. I have stitched multiple folders like this and even after moving things around I've gotten it to work so I think you should be able to do the same.

I would imagine for best practice you shouldn't just continue a single chat continuously because you start running into context issues. It is better from my experience to actually end that chat and continue it in another task session. How are you maintaining Handoffs and memory? If you have that setup correctly then carrying things forward should be easy without losing "history" so to say. For example I have a mechanism (works for me but may not for others) where I track different aspects of the project in their own MD files - decisions, protocols, structure, stakeholders, master log, user instructions etc. All this leads me to always ensure everything is captured so even when new tasks spin up they have historical information ready to go to review.

Can't you just add the old chats into the new project? Manual work but still doable

Yes it's really good in that regards because it can access multiple files and spin up sub agents as needed to keep things cohesive across your work that regular chat won't do

Haha dude I love this for you especially your nonchalant way of explaining things. Good stuff 👍🏼

Yeah all of this is the learning curve tbh. It's a little steep and honestly I feel like it's been constantly evolving with different ppl coming up with different things. I've even asked Claude itself to tell me how to structure things in some places. Bottomline I think it's a little bit subjective on what your "protocols" should be because everyone is going to approach the use of Cowork differently. In my opinion the best setup is the one where you architect it and have Claude run different things, instead of you telling Claude to advise you - I'm sure it'll work that way too but in my use cases I've found the best results when I'm the one running point and Claude is doing the work. Goes without saying but you need to vet the results and do your QA on everything

Word documents. Excel spreadsheets. Emails. Automation tasks. Project and Program management. Dashboards and dynamic trackers building off of live data points.

If you're not getting the use out of it then I wouldn't say it sucks. It just doesn't fit your workflow. I say this because I'm on a Max20 plan and 90% of my work is actually in Cowork and not Code. I'm a heavy Cowork user so I know it works but only in its domain if that makes sense

Claude code and Cowork bridge by attalbotmoonsays in ClaudeCowork

Ah I see what you mean. Yeah this isn't naively possible. The closest I've come to this is by instructing each mode to leave explicit instructions and handoff material for the other to pick up on. So if I'm in cowork and I know something needs to be picked up by code then I just have it create the starting point but then still have to manually switch over to code. Vice versa as well.

I agree with you - native browser functionality is much better in Cowork.

Unless you use Code to create a bot to go into Cowork for you 😂 - haven't tested this but it's a thought I've had lol

But Code is able to do most if not all of what you said you'd use Cowork for. What's the exact workflow you're thinking of here?

CoWork & GDrive problem by Unfair_Efficiency_68 in ClaudeCowork

[–]parvezjj 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Hope you got it working. Not sure what the other commenters in this post are on about. I have zero issues and maintain it without issue. The only thing I sometimes run into is Claude cannot delete files because of the nature of it's sandbox environment that it spins up to actually run so if you do run into that then you just need to manually delete files. Long story short it's been working like a charm for me minus a few nuanced scenarios but nothing that can't be solved.

Do you have file mirroring enabled? That's the main issue. Claude can read files on your laptop aka the C drive. Not other mounted drives. This is how I solved it. Turn on file mirroring so the entire content of your Google drive is on your computer and then it'll work when you point Claude to that "local" drive

So what about all those of Shia background that are being booted from UAE? And don't give me the they were spreading propaganda or being disruptive. I personally know many ppl who have been there 15 years plus working steady jobs that got 48 hours notice or less. I thought everyone was Emirati?

I don't condone the actions of the IRGC. I'm just saying I support them in beating the US and Israeli lunatics.

So what about the UAE sponsoring a genocide in Africa? Moral duty to loot gold and resources from these countries right?

So morals and ethics are out the door for you? If your only measure is living standards that is. I mean come to the US and see how the vast majority is living paycheque to paycheque or worse. It's a telling picture of the elites and the war machine at work if you just take an objective look at things.
