What this lesson covers

  1. Read an email before Claude does
  2. Give Claude only the data, and your own instruction
  3. Check what you've already allowed
  4. Vet add-ons before you install them
  5. Keep the risky settings for the right place

You’ll come away with: Treat text Claude reads as information, not instructions; check what you've allowed; and vet any add-on before you install it.
