Outcome
Jagger, who writes the AI the boring newsletter, was asked for an invitation letter during a visa appointment, and it was on a Mac at home. From a phone, Jagger opened Claude's Dispatch tab and typed "Find my visa docs as I need a few of them." About thirty seconds later Claude had searched Documents, Desktop and Downloads, found a Visa folder and listed its contents. After "Email me my invitation letter.", Claude attached the PDF in Mac Mail and sent it to Jagger's Gmail while the officer was still processing the other documents. Printing the page at the counter still cost $3.

Output: A list of matching files, then a sent email with the chosen file attached. You'll know it worked when: the document arrives in my inbox within a few minutes. Before you finish: re-read my goal and constraints, check your answer against each one, and list anything you assumed or couldn't confirm.

When a freezer stopped working, Marc Landers gave Grok the make, model and problem. Grok had them turn on voice and camera mode, open the door, remove the top hinge cover (no tools needed) and point the camera at a wire it said was a known fault for that model. Grok gave the price and an Amazon link for the part; the £10 wire arrived next day and took five minutes to replace, instead of paying a repair technician.
