Use case overview

A user says Claude Cowork fixed their API website after another agent kept breaking it, explaining the problem and working through changes with them.

Reported experience

  1. What they did

    The Reddit post says the user used Claude Cowork on their laptop for technical tasks and let it inspect and control work directly, describing it as like a competent IT person remote-controlling the computer. For this case, they say it went into the code of their API website and fixed issues manually after Replit’s agent kept breaking simple additions and not understanding the site.

  2. How it went

    The stated result was that the API website got fixed after repeated problems with the Replit agent. The post gives no metrics, timeline, or step-by-step breakdown for the repair, so the exact changes and limits are unclear.

  3. Worth knowing

    The most useful catch from the thread is that this account is very thin on implementation details, so you would need the original poster’s broader Cowork setup rather than a reproducible website-fixing workflow.

Example prompts

Try with Claude Cowork
My website at [project folder or URL] is broken: [describe symptom, e.g. API calls returning errors]. Find the cause, explain it to me in plain language, and propose a fix before changing anything. Finished means the issue is resolved, you've shown me what you changed, and I've confirmed it works. Ask me before deleting any files or making changes you can't undo.
