Different tasks need different autonomy. Asking Claude to explain a concept is not the same as asking it to execute a tool-based workflow.

  • Ask: explain or summarize.
  • Collaborate: think with you.
  • Delegate: produce a useful artifact.
  • Execute: act through tools.
  • Verify: check work against criteria.
