💟 Week 2: Claude Skills - REPLAY
Okay so... Today was supposed to be clean and simple ⇢ walk you through Claude Skills, show you exactly how they work, and send you off to build your own. Instead? Claude decided to be a little moody. Skills were disappearing, refusing to save, throwing internal errors... the whole nine yards. Technology being technology. But we made it work anyway. 😅 ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🎯 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗪𝗲 𝗖𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗿𝗲𝗱 (𝗗𝗲𝘀𝗽𝗶𝘁𝗲 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝗖𝗵𝗮𝗼𝘀) 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀 𝗔𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗔𝗿𝗲: Think system prompts, but for Claude. They're instructions you teach Claude once so it remembers forever — no more re-explaining your brand colors, writing style, or workflows every single time. 𝗪𝗵𝗲𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗼 𝗙𝗶𝗻𝗱 𝗧𝗵𝗲𝗺: Settings → Capabilities → scroll all the way down. Sometimes they're there. Sometimes they're not. (We're blaming the tech gods today.) 𝗧𝗵𝗿𝗲𝗲 𝗪𝗮𝘆𝘀 𝘁𝗼 𝗖𝗿𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹𝘀: 𝟭. 𝗜𝗻 𝗮 𝗰𝗼𝗻𝘃𝗲𝗿𝘀𝗮𝘁𝗶𝗼𝗻 𝘄𝗶𝘁𝗵 𝗖𝗹𝗮𝘂𝗱𝗲 Have a back-and-forth where you nail something (brand aesthetic, content format, whatever). Then just say: "Turn this into a Claude skill I can use anytime." Done. 𝟮. 𝗠𝗮𝗻𝘂𝗮𝗹𝗹𝘆 𝗶𝗻 𝗦𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 Click "Add Skill" → Write it yourself or paste in a system prompt you already built in ChatGPT. 𝟯. 𝗨𝗽𝗹𝗼𝗮𝗱 𝗮 𝘀𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗳𝗶𝗹𝗲 Someone shares a .skill or .md file with you? Upload it. Boom — now it's yours. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔥 𝗪𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝗠𝗮𝗸𝗲𝘀 𝗮 𝗚𝗼𝗼𝗱 𝗦𝗸𝗶𝗹𝗹 𝗔𝗻𝘆𝘁𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗲𝘅𝗽𝗹𝗮𝗶𝗻 𝗿𝗲𝗽𝗲𝗮𝘁𝗲𝗱𝗹𝘆: → Brand colors and fonts → Content format preferences (carousel structure, email sequence, etc.) → Frameworks you teach or use → Decision trees (like reviewing resumes or contracts) 𝗧𝗵𝗶𝗻𝗴𝘀 𝘁𝗵𝗮𝘁 𝘀𝗮𝘃𝗲 𝘆𝗼𝘂 𝗮𝗰𝘁𝘂𝗮𝗹 𝘁𝗶𝗺𝗲: → My Talk It Out Tuesday documents (I voice note → it formats perfectly every week) → Carousel writing (knows my structure, my CTA options, my vibe) → Brand aesthetic (no more copying hex codes like a caveman) 𝗧𝗵𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝘂𝗳𝗳 𝘆𝗼𝘂'𝗿𝗲 𝘁𝗶𝗿𝗲𝗱 𝗼𝗳 𝗳𝗶𝘅𝗶𝗻𝗴: → "Why does this sound like AI wrote it?" (See the Skills Library for a little giftie gift from me to you!) → "Why doesn't it remember my brand voice?" → "Why do I have to explain this every single time?"
