AI Tools Setup

Set up your AI tools

Before your Real Minds AI training, here's what to install and sign up for. Check the table for your course, then open the dedicated setup page for each tool you need.

Your course's tools

No active courses are currently listed. See training options.

One row per active course. Sessions are run on Microsoft Teams; the tools below are what you'll use during and after class.

You need a paid Claude plan

The free tier of Claude has usage limits that will hit you mid-session — a 3.5-hour build session burns through tokens fast. A paid plan keeps you working. This applies to both Claude Code and Claude Desktop.

Plans that qualify: Pro, Max, Team, Enterprise, or Anthropic API billing.

Rough price: Claude Pro is around AUD $30/month. Live pricing.

Upgrade: claude.ai/upgrade.

If your organisation already pays for Claude (Team or Enterprise), ask your admin for an invitation before the session.

Per-tool setup pages

Each tool has its own dedicated page with prerequisites, install steps, and troubleshooting. Pick the ones your course needs.

Claude Code

Conversational AI in your terminal. The full dev stack — git, Volta, Node, uv, Python, Claude Code — for CC01-1 and any session that builds locally.

Open Claude Code setup

Claude Desktop

The Mac/Windows app. Home for Chat, Cowork, and the Code tab. Used by CC02-1 and most cowork sessions. Windows has a few extra Windows-feature steps.

Open Claude Desktop setup

Google Gemini

Browser-based — no install. Just a Google account and (sometimes) a paid Gemini plan. Workspace accounts can be blocked by IT, so check before the session.

Open Gemini setup

First-run checklist

Before your session, confirm whichever applies:

Claude Desktop opens and your account shows the paid-plan badge — if your course uses Claude Desktop.
claude runs in your terminal and accepts a prompt — if your course uses Claude Code.
gemini.google.com opens and you can send a test prompt — if your course uses Gemini.
