1. Meet Claude

Claude is a chat assistant from Anthropic. It runs inference like other chat models, so token efficiency applies, and this track covers only what is distinctive about working with it.

Claude is often described as following instructions closely and handling nuance and longer reasoning well. Those are tendencies, not guarantees, and they shift between versions.

Any specific claim about Claude's behavior can change with updates. The reliable skill is testing its current defaults yourself, which the last lesson of this track covers.

General prompting technique lives in the other courses. Here we focus on Claude-specific habits and settings.
