# How-to

> What's new in Claude, read at the source and explained with everyday life. A two-minute video, a sheet to keep, commands to copy.

- READ AT THE SOURCE
- FIGURES AND COMMANDS AS WRITTEN
- IMAGES ARE IMAGES

## Claude series

- [Claude Code in the cloud: one machine per task](https://consonance.fyi/en/mode-d-emploi/claude-code-in-the-cloud.md): A cloud session runs Claude Code on a machine of its own, one per task, with your repository on a new branch: several tasks run in parallel without getting in each other's way, and the work comes back as a branch or a pull request.
- [Moving to Claude Sonnet 5.5, in three coding situations](https://consonance.fyi/en/mode-d-emploi/building-with-claude-sonnet-5-5.md): Claude Sonnet 5.5 is 30% faster than Sonnet 5, at the same price per token; to migrate, change the model name and fix three things that break: reading the first block, thinking turned off and the forced tool.
- [Evaluating and improving an AI app, explained with an exam](https://consonance.fyi/en/mode-d-emploi/automating-eval-design-and-hillclimbing.md): Two commands of the claude-api skill: build-eval builds an evaluation inside your codebase, with your approval, and hillclimb improves your app against it, one change at a time, keeping examples aside to catch overfitting.
- [Claude Code mods: two examples from the guide, and a real mod for recording your screen](https://consonance.fyi/en/mode-d-emploi/getting-started-with-claude-code-mods.md): A mod is a small JavaScript or TypeScript file that runs inside your Claude Code session: it observes, answers instead of Claude Code, or rewrites what is drawn. A real example: Recording Mode masks your secrets on screen while you record.
- [Claude Code's effort, explained](https://consonance.fyi/en/mode-d-emploi/spending-your-effort.md): Effort does not make Claude smarter: it sets how much computing it spends, so how much it checks and tests edge cases.
