Choose the Right Claude Mode
Claude has four modes and each returns something different. Chat gives quick answers, drafts, and back-and-forth thinking, with no access to your files. Cowork hands off multi-step tasks across your files, apps, and browser and returns a finished deliverable for review. Code builds real, repeatable software in a developer workspace. Design is a visual canvas for apps and prototypes as well as flyers, slide decks, and graphics, and it can reuse your templates and design systems. Ask Claude which one fits before you start.
I need [outcome]. Should this be a quick answer, a finished file, working software, or a visual design/graphic?
