โœ“ BEFORE THE SESSION

Pre-workshop checklist

Three days out

  1. Install the latest Claude Desktop (v1.2581.0 or newer).
    Mac or Windows โ€” either is fine.
  2. Sign in to the Claude Max plan.
    Confirm the Code tab is visible.
  3. If your laptop is IT-managed, clear the install with IT now.
    DMG execution + install permissions, pre-approved before the day.

Day before

  1. Open the Code tab once and type "Hello" to confirm a response.
  2. Test the venue Wi-Fi bandwidth โ€” 10 Mbps or more recommended.

Morning of

  1. Charge to 100% ยท confirm external-display adapter.
  2. Notifications off โ€” Slack and Teams on silent (deep focus).
  3. A notepad at hand for questions. Paper is fine.
๐Ÿ”‘ On API keys. The ai-executive tool used in this workshop needs a ChatGPT API key per agent. Three rules to agree on with your ops team before the day: never paste keys into chat, always load via .env, and use a freshly rotated key for the day that you revoke right after. Full playbook: API key hygiene guide.
