What non coding tasks do you use Claude Code for? Genuinely curious.
- world2vec 10mo agoIt can also take notes, write down plans and TODO lists, update on gym records, etc, etc.
- Tusharmagar 10mo agoCurious how you're handling notes and TODO lists. Do you give Claude Code access to a local markdown file, or is it working some other way?
- world2vec 10mo agoPretty much yeah, just a folder with .md files
- brianjking 10mo agoLOTS! Sometimes for quick file system organization, creating Claude skills, deep document analysis. Anthropic published a doc or two about this too, here's one of them: https://www-cdn.anthropic.com/58284b19e702b49db9302d5b6f135ad8871e7658.pdf#:~:text=The%20team%20uses%20Claude%20Code%20as%20their,codebase%20and%20gathering%20context%20before%20starting%20work. https://www-cdn.anthropic.com/58284b19e702b49db9302d5b6f135a...
- segmenta 10mo agoAh, that’s interesting. Are there any parts of Claude Code that you feel could work differently or get in your way for these kinds of tasks?
- ntnsndr 10mo agoI use CC regularly for editing large text files (especially turning interview transcripts into something readable) and have found it works much better than web chat interfaces because of filesystem access and ability to work with large files.
- segmenta 10mo agoThat’s great to know. I’ve come to the same conclusion. I’ve found that things work best when they happen right where I’m already working. Uploading files or recreating context in a web service adds friction, especially when everything is already available locally.
