Draft meeting emails, clean Drive, and log rewards
Claude in Chrome handled calendar-based email drafts, reorganized a crowded Drive, and repeated a reward-checking routine into a spreadsheet.
- What they did
- The writer added the Claude in Chrome extension and let it access their browsing. Claude looked at Google Calendar, then wrote email drafts suggesting open meeting times. It also moved loose Drive files into folders, left uncertain items aside, and later replayed a recorded process for checking reward programs and entering the results in a spreadsheet.
- How it went
- Their Drive shifted from nearly 900 scattered files to six main folders with subfolders, and about 50 duplicates were taken out. The reward-checking run worked aside from a couple of password mistakes, and Claude proposed repeating it each month.
- Tips
- Recorded routines can expose passwords and require broad account access, so use them carefully. For anything sensitive, avoid handing over an automated version of the task.
Try it yourself with Claude in Chrome
Review my Google Calendar for open times in the next [time period], and draft emails to [recipients] offering [number] meeting options each. Do not send anything until I approve every draft. Then open my Google Drive folder [folder name], sort the loose files into a clear folder structure, and flag any duplicates or unclear items for my review before you delete, move, or merge anything. Finally, follow my recorded process for checking [reward programs] and entering the results into [spreadsheet name], but pause and ask before any sign-in, submission, payment, or other irreversible step, then summarize what you changed.
