## The prompt

Fill in the parts in [square brackets], or leave them and the AI will ask you for them.

```text
Make a holiday hosting plan as a doc I can share with my family. We're hosting [HOLIDAY OCCASION, e.g. Thanksgiving dinner] on [EVENT DATE, e.g. Thursday November 26] for [GUEST COUNT, e.g. 14 people, 3 of them kids]. The food has to work for [DIETARY NEEDS, e.g. one vegetarian, one nut allergy]. Include a short welcome note at the top, a menu table with a column for who's bringing each dish, a task table (setup, cleanup, chairs, airport pickups) with an empty name column, a timeline for the day, and a shopping list. Leave clear blank spots so people can sign up by typing their name. Keep it friendly and easy to read on a phone.
```

## Step by step

1. Open Claude, type /docs at the start of your message, then paste the prompt below.
2. Read the doc Claude makes and ask for any changes in the chat.
3. Click Share and set it so anyone with the link can edit, then copy the link.
4. Send the link to the family and ask everyone to put their name next to a task.
5. Mention @Claude in a comment later to update the plan when things change.

A shareable Claude Doc with a menu, task sign-ups, a day-of timeline and a shopping list your family fills in together.
