Hands-On Exercise

15 minutes — open claude.ai and follow along.

  1. Configure your user preferences in Settings > Profile
  2. Open Claude Code in your terminal — run claude and ask it the same question you asked in chat
  3. Compare: same prompt in chat (claude.ai) vs. CLI (claude) — notice the differences
  4. Try a real task — draft a runbook, troubleshoot a config, write a KQL query, or review a CA policy — at different thinking effort levels
  5. Iterate: take Claude's first output, find something wrong, push back and refine
  6. Self-check: append "then review your output for accuracy" to your next request
