Here’s my hot take: Build your own skills. Don’t waste your time bloating your context window with a bunch of junk you don’t need, made by someone who isn’t you and doesn’t have the same workflow as you.
Here’s my process:
- Get the agent to do a lot of stuff.
- Find a common process that has a lot of very particular context (rules, ceremony, etc.).
- Do it n times before you realize you should just make this process into a skill.
- Tell the agent to make the process into a skill.
- Use the skill the next time you do that thing.
- Polish the skill over time (add things that help and remove things that don’t help)
- Repeat as needed.
