File Organization Tips
Always create a new folder in Claude Cowork before running a prompt. This saves time because the AI will automatically place all output files (checklist, itinerary, hotels) into that folder, so you don't have to organize them manually later.
Benefits of AI-Powered Packing Lists
Claude Cowork can incorporate real-time temperature and weather info for your destination into the packing list, ensuring you know exactly what to bring without needing to check a separate weather app.
Limitations of Booking Agents
While AI can list hotel options complete with budgets and location links, the ability for agents to automatically handle bookings using credit cards is still in its early stages. It is safer to finalize your bookings manually via the provided links for now.
