"The tool is made up of "folders that include instructions, scripts, and resources that Claude can load when needed to make it smarter at specific work tasks - from working with Excel [to] following your organization's brand guidelines," per a release. People can also build their own Skills for Claude relative to their specific jobs and use them across Claude.ai, Claude Code, Anthropic's API, and the Claude Agent SDK."
"Now, AI companies are devoting even more time and resources than before to make their agents actually useful for end users, whether they're consumers or professionals. Essentially, the feature is designed to improve Claude's AI agent capabilities for your work specifically, so you don't have to spend as much time writing the perfect prompt or referring to past context every time you're trying to accomplish a task."
Anthropic launched Skills for Claude, a feature of folders containing instructions, scripts, and resources that Claude can load to perform specific work tasks, such as working with Excel or following organizational brand guidelines. People and organizations can build custom Skills for job-specific workflows and deploy them across Claude.ai, Claude Code, Anthropic's API, and the Claude Agent SDK. Early adopters include Box, Rakuten, and Canva. Skills reduce the need for precise prompt engineering and repeated context sharing by embedding task-specific logic and resources. The capability targets both consumer and professional use cases and is available to Pro, Max, Team, and Enterprise users.
