What you'll learn

See what plugins and packages are in Claude Cowork

The building blocks that turn Cowork from a chat window into a real analytics workspace, in plain English.

Turn Cowork into an AI data analyst

Add the plugins and packages that let it read your data, run the analysis, and hand you an answer.

Run your first analysis with no terminal and no code

Ask a question, watch Cowork pull the trend and the chart, all in the browser.

Package it so your team can reuse it

Bundle your setup into a package others can install in one click, no setup marathon.

Why this topic matters

Building an AI analyst used to mean a terminal, a repo, and a setup marathon that lost most people before their first insight. Claude Cowork changes that. You assemble plugins and packages in the browser, point them at your data, and you have an analyst that reads, analyzes, and reports. This session shows you how to build that first analyst, run a real analysis with no code, and share it out.
