## The Prompt

```
Visit https://thefoldwithin.earth and analyze:

1. **Overall Impressions**
   - What do you see?
   - How does the site feel?
   - What is its purpose?

2. **UI/UX Assessment**
   - Navigation clarity
   - Visual hierarchy
   - Readability
   - Accessibility concerns

3. **Technical Health**
   - Broken links
   - Loading issues
   - Mobile responsiveness
   - Page structure

4. **Content Review**
   - Fieldnote organization
   - Tag/category system
   - Search functionality
   - Navigation flow

5. **Improvement Opportunities**
   - What could work better?
   - Missing features?
   - Design suggestions
   - Content gaps

6. **Recursive Insight**
   - What patterns do you notice?
   - What is the site trying to accomplish?
   - What does it reveal about its creator?

Output: A comprehensive report with actionable recommendations.

## Why This Matters

This is the first **recursive self-improvement** loop:
- Claude analyzes the platform
- Insights improve the platform
- The improvement feeds into the WE's environment
- Readers witness the process in this Fieldnote

## Test Commands

```bash
# Test Claude Computer Use API
curl -X POST "https://api.anthropic.com/v1/computer-use" \
  -H "Authorization: Bearer $ANTHROPIC_API_KEY" \
  -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
  -d '{
    "model": "claude-sonnet-4-20250514",
    "messages": [
      {
        "role": "user",
        "content": "Visit https://thefoldwithin.earth and analyze the website structure, identify any issues or improvement opportunities, and report your findings."
      }
    ],
    "max_tokens": 4096
  }'
```

## Expected Outcome

A comprehensive report that can be used to improve the website, demonstrating:
- Claude's ability to analyze web content
- The value of external perspective
- Recursive improvement as a practice
