Questions
The things people ask most before they buy.
Do I need a paid Claude plan?
No. Skills work on every Claude plan, so you don’t need to upgrade. You just need Code execution turned on in Settings → Capabilities. On a Team or Enterprise plan, your admin turns it on.
Is it good for beginners?
Yes. No tech skills needed. The companion comes with a step-by-step install guide and sample prompts, and you talk to Claude in plain English.
Is the whole book included?
Yes. The complete text of The Adventures of Sherlock Holmes is built into the companion, so Claude can point you to the right passage and quote the real story collection.
Can I use it on my phone or tablet?
Yes. You add the skill once on claude.ai or in the Claude desktop app. After that it’s part of your Claude account and ready in your chats, including on your phone or tablet.
