Sales Control Panel
A sales dashboard that reads your email, calendar, calls and pipeline, then brings your top priorities to your attention.
If you've already got Claude Cowork installed and you're on a paid plan, skip the setup and just grab the skill.
Download the skillThe full setup guide is right below. It only takes a few minutes.
If you don't have the Claude desktop app, you'll need it first, so download it here.
(You'll also need Claude Pro, around $20.)
Install Cowork
Download the Claude desktop app and sign in on a paid plan. It has to be the desktop app, not the browser, because that is the version that can read your files and connect to your tools.
Open Cowork and give it a folder
Cowork is where Claude actually does work on your computer, not just chat. Get in and point it at one folder:
- Open the desktop app and switch to Cowork, the middle of the three modes at the top.
- Click New Task, then Work in a Project, then Choose a folder.
- Make a fresh, empty folder (I call mine Claude Playground).
Claude only ever sees that one folder, nothing else on your computer, and it uses it to save your panel and your data. So it stays private and tidy.
Install the skill
A skill is a saved set of instructions Claude follows every time. You install it once, then it's yours.
Download the skill- It saves a small file, sales-control-panel.skill, to your Downloads.
- In a new Cowork task, drag the file into the chat, then click the Save skill button that appears on it.
- Check it worked: click + at the bottom of the chat, then Skills. You should see it listed.
You only do this once.
Run it
- Open a New Task in your project folder.
- Click + > Skills > sales-control-panel, or just say build my sales panel.
- It asks two quick questions: what you sell, and where your deal data lives.
Not ready with your own data? Pick the demo data and watch it build first, so you can see it working before you plug anything in. Your panel opens in Live Artifacts and refreshes every morning.
Connect your tools (when ready)
Go to Customize > Connect your apps and add your real data sources, so the panel runs on your own pipeline.
- The ones that matter most are your email and your pipeline or CRM.
- For each: search the tool, click it, log in, done.
You can run it on demo data first, then come back and connect your apps to make it properly yours.
Before you finish (quick checks)
- ›Claude desktop app installed on a paid plan, Cowork open with one folder selected.
- ›Skill visible under + > Skills.
- ›Answered the two questions, or picked demo data.
- ›Output is your panel in Live Artifacts, refreshing each morning.

- ✓Handles multiple currencies and messy date formats without silently dropping deals.
- ✓Never invents data: missing fields are flagged and you decide before it builds.
