Episode 149 - Get Yo Skills

from Just Five Mins! · host David Sheardown

You need skills… from making coffee (decent coffee at least!) to whatever you do in your day job. Skills for AI has been introduced by the claude folks Anthropic. Skills are really useful and powerful, and in essence, just a set of folders in your code project (but not limited to code! could be a folder for marketing and what not). You can define certain aspects, detailed specifications including code/text/document snippets.What really makes skills efficient is they a progressively loaded as needed. None of this massive context window chomping through your AI subscription tokens!Anyway, further info below in the links:Skills, Instructions and MoarAnthropic Skills InfoHey, this is a free podcast.
