What you'll learn

Build with The Orchestrator Method™

Start from the output you want, work backward to the steps, and shape the skill that produces it every time.

Turn a Cowork thread into a skill

Run the task in Cowork until it's right, then have Claude save that same thread, with your fixes, as a skill.

Record your actions and turn them into a skill

For work you do in other apps: record and narrate the steps, and Claude builds a reusable skill from them.

See it built on a real example

We build a lead-research skill from scratch, so you watch a full skill come together end to end.

Why this topic matters

A skill turns a task you repeat into one that runs the same way every time. This session is where you learn to build one, from scratch: take a task you'd do by hand, get it right once in Cowork, then save that thread as a skill. Watching it built end to end is what lets you make your own. We build a lead-research skill live, and the same steps carry to your reports, summaries, or call prep.
