Monitor a competitor's website weekly
Goal. Know when a competitor changes prices, products or messaging, without checking myself.
Open. Scheduled tasks with browser or web search (paid plan).
Visit [competitor site pages: pricing, products, news]. Compare with what you found last week (keep a short record in the task's document). Report only changes: new or removed products, price changes with old and new, new claims or offers, anything on their news page. If nothing changed, say "no changes" in one line. End with one sentence on whether any change affects [my business] and what I might do.
What you get · Watch out
What you get. A short weekly change report, or "no changes".
Watch out. Point it at specific pages, not the whole site. Keep it to reading; never let it fill forms on a competitor's site. If stuck: Chapters 1.12, 2.3.

Goal. Every Monday morning, five things that happened in my field, with links, without me searching.
Open. Scheduled tasks (sidebar), paid plan.
Search the web for news from the past 7 days about [my industry / topic / competitor names]. Pick the 5 items most relevant to [who I am and what I do]. For each: one plain-words sentence on what happened, one on why it matters to me, and the link. Skip press releases and opinion pieces unless important. If a week is quiet, say so rather than padding. Put it in a document titled "Week of [date]: [topic] news".

Read my unread emails from the last [24 hours]. Ignore newsletters and notifications. Give me a table: from, subject, what they want, urgency (today / this week / no action).

Fill a form on a website for me
Goal. A long online form filled from my details, so I only check and submit.
Open. Cowork with the browser (paid plan); be logged in to the site yourself if it needs an account.
Open [site address] in the browser and go to [the form]. Fill it with these details: [name, address, dates, answers]. If a field is unclear, ask me before guessing. Do not enter payment details or passwords; stop and tell me when you reach them. Do not press Submit. When everything is filled, take a screenshot and show me, then wait for me to say "submit" or submit it myself.
What you get · Watch out
What you get. A permission card for the site, then the filled form shown to you before anything is sent.
Watch out. Claude will not type passwords or card numbers, and should not; keep those steps yours. Review the screenshot line by line. If stuck: Chapters 2.3, 2.10.
