Let Claude interview you by voice about two weekly jobs, then save each job as a Claude skill
In Agent Intelligence issue #87, Matt Spangler has agents pick two jobs repeated every week that have no template, such as buyer lead triage, showing feedback recaps, or comparing two offers side by side. The agent turns on voice in the Claude phone app and lets Claude interview the agent one question at a time on the drive to an appointment, then asks Claude to write the skill with a name, when to use the skill, the steps in order, and the unspoken rules, marking vague answers instead of filling gaps. After saving the skill under Settings, the agent connects email or calendar and tests the skill in a brand new conversation. On ChatGPT Plus or Pro, the same interview goes into a Project's instructions because ChatGPT skills are Business and Enterprise only.

- 2 Claude Skills From Your 2 Biggest Jobs | Agent Intelligence #87
Matt Spangler (Agent Intelligence) · Newsletter · Sep 25, 2026 - First step
- List the jobs you do at least weekly that have no template and that you explain from scratch every time you ask for help, then pick the two that cost you the most Sunday-night hours.
Compliance note: Check your Claude data settings before you connect email or calendar accounts that hold client information; the source notes that no training on your data is the default only on Team and Enterprise plans. Read each skill before you save the skill, because a skill copies your bad habits along with your good ones.
Suggested prompt
Written by this directory, inspired by the source. Replace the [bracketed] parts.
I want to turn one of my recurring jobs into a reusable skill. The job is [describe it in one sentence]. Don't write anything yet. Interview me about it first, one question at a time, until you understand what I actually do, including the parts I do without thinking. Keep asking until you could do it without me. When the interview is done: Now write the skill. Start with a name and one line on when it should be used, then the steps in order, what I look at in each one, and the rules I follow without saying them out loud. Where my answers were vague, say so instead of filling the gap yourself. Write it so another agent on my team could run this job without asking me anything.
