#214 Max: Claude Skills – The "Missing Link" Between Prompts & MCPs
Update: 2025-11-06
Description
Anthropic just dropped "Claude Skills," the "missing link" AI feature you've been waiting for. 🤯 We're diving into this game-changing new way to build a reliable AI agent army.
We’ll talk about:
- A complete guide to Claude Skills—the reusable, "flash drive" micro-workflows that solve AI's "Context Rot" problem.
- The crucial Decision Framework: the strategic guide on exactly when to use Skills (for repeatable tasks) vs. Custom Instructions (for global rules) vs. MCP Servers (for live data).
- The "AI Cheat Code": How to use an AI to write your skill.md file for you, based on templates from Anthropic's GitHub or aitmpl.com.
- The "Progressive Disclosure" strategy: a pro-level workflow where you "plug in" expert Skills on-demand during a single, long conversation.
- Plus, real-world examples you can build, like a "Revenue Forecaster" (with Python/Prophet) and a "CSV to Slides" automator.
