<div class="analogy-box">
<h4>Think of it like this</h4>
<p>Without an agent, you walk into a random kitchen and shout "make me pasta!" &mdash; whoever happens to hear you might boil instant noodles or make a five-course Italian meal. <strong>With an agent</strong>, you're walking up to a specific person with a specific job title. The Italian chef makes pasta the Italian-chef way. Every time.</p>

<div class="col-card bad">
<h4>Plain Prompting (asking a stranger)</h4>
<p>You ask Claude "What's the weather in Dubai?"</p>
<p>It might guess from training data, search the web, or make something up.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px; color: #c62828;"><strong>You don't know what it'll do.</strong></p>

<p><em>"Always check the Open-Meteo weather service. Always return temperature in a clean, consistent format."</em></p>

<h4>Tip from Thariq (Anthropic) &mdash; Apr 16, 2026</h4>
<p>"When Claude spawns an agent, that agent gets its own fresh brain. It can do as much work as it needs, then synthesize its results &mdash; only the final report comes back to you."</p>
</div>
<p>This connects directly to the weather reporter: the <code>weather-agent</code> works in <strong>its own brain</strong> &mdash; all that web fetching, JSON parsing, and failed attempts stay out of yours. You just get the temperature back.</p>

<p>Type <code>/agents</code> in Claude Code. A menu appears with your existing agents and an option to create a new one.</p>

<div class="analogy-box">
<h4>Think of it like this</h4>
<p>Creating an agent is like <strong>writing a job description for a new hire</strong>. You say what the role is, what tools they get, and how they should behave. Claude drafts the JD; you review and adjust.</p>

<!-- Slide 13: Agent Config Fields -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="24">
<h1>Agent Config Fields</h1>
<p>The config block at the top of an agent file controls its identity and capabilities. Here's what the real <code>weather-agent.md</code> uses:</p>

<h4>The Key Field for This Workshop</h4>
<p>The <code>skills:</code> field is what makes the weather-agent special. It preloads <code>weather-fetcher</code> directly into the agent's brain at startup &mdash; before the agent has received a single instruction. The agent doesn't need to be told how to fetch weather; it already knows.</p>

<p class="section-desc">Skills are the specific things the reporter has been trained to do. Our reporter has two: <strong>fetch the data</strong>, and <strong>render it as a card</strong>.</p>

<h1>The Training Manual</h1>
<div class="analogy-box">
<h4>Think of it like this</h4>
<p>When someone joins your team, they have a role (agent), but they also go through specific training modules &mdash; how to use the CRM, how to write a proposal, how to run a standup. Each training module is a <strong>skill</strong>.</p>

<h1>When to Turn Something Into a Skill</h1>
<div class="info-box">
<h4>Tip from Boris Cherny (creator of Claude Code) &mdash; Feb 1, 2026</h4>
<p>"If you do something <strong>more than once a day</strong>, turn it into a skill."</p>
</div>
<p>The rule is simple: anything you're explaining to Claude over and over is a skill waiting to be written down. The weather reporter's skills are a perfect example:</p>
<div class="use-cases">
<div class="use-case-item">
<span class="use-case-icon">&#x1F321;&#xFE0F;</span>
<div class="use-case-text">
<strong>Fetch Dubai's temperature</strong>

<h4>Takeaway</h4>
<p>Skills are how <strong>repetition becomes reliability</strong>. Write it down once, and Claude does it the same way forever &mdash; or until you update the skill.</p>

<!-- Slide 17: Why Separate Agents and Skills? -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="28">
<h1>Why Separate Agents and Skills?</h1>
<div class="two-col">
<div>
<h3>Agent = The Person</h3>
<p>The <code>weather-agent</code> is the person with the job title <strong>"Weather Reporter"</strong>.</p>
<p>It defines the <em>role</em> and <em>behavior</em>: use Open-Meteo, return temperature, track history in memory.</p>
</div>
<div>
<h3>Skill = The Training</h3>
<p>The <code>weather-fetcher</code> skill is the specific training on <strong>how</strong> to fetch weather data.</p>
<p>It contains exact instructions:</p>
<ul class="feature-list">
<li>Call this specific API URL</li>
<li>Extract <code>current.temperature_2m</code> from the response</li>
<li>Return value + unit in this exact format</li>
</ul>
</div>
</div>
<div class="how-to-trigger" style="margin-top: 24px;">
<h4>The Power</h4>
<p><strong>One agent can have multiple skills</strong>, and <strong>one skill can be used by multiple agents</strong>. Skills are reusable building blocks. Agents are the people who use them.</p>

<h1>&#x1F9E0; Context &mdash; The Reporter's Brain</h1>
<p class="section-desc">Now that you've met the reporter and know their skills, let's understand what they can actually hold in mind at once. Every agent &mdash; including the weather reporter &mdash; gets its own fresh brain.</p>
</div>
<!-- Slide 21: Claude's Brain -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="32">
<h1>Claude's Brain</h1>
<div class="analogy-box">
<h4>Think of it like this</h4>
<p>Imagine Claude has a <strong>brain</strong> that holds everything it's aware of right now &mdash; your question, every file it's opened, every tool result, every word it's said back to you. If a thought isn't in the brain, Claude can't use it. Simple as that.</p>
</div>

<p>When the <code>weather-agent</code> is dispatched, it gets its own fresh brain &mdash; and <code>weather-fetcher</code> is pinned into it at startup via the <code>skills:</code> field. Everything you give Claude in a conversation lands in its brain:</p>
<div class="use-cases">
<div class="use-case-item">
<span class="use-case-icon">&#x1F4AC;</span>
<div class="use-case-text">

<span class="use-case-icon">&#x1F4C4;</span>
<div class="use-case-text">
<strong>Every file Claude opens</strong>
<span>Read a 500-page PDF? All of it is in the brain now.</span>

<div class="use-case-text">
<strong>Every tool result</strong>

</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="warning-box">
<h4>Two Things Every Non-Engineer Should Know</h4>
<p><strong>1. The brain is finite.</strong> It can hold about 1 million tokens &mdash; roughly 750,000 words, or a short novel. Big, but not infinite. <strong>2. The brain empties at the end of every chat.</strong> When you start a new conversation, Claude remembers <em>nothing</em> from the last one unless you tell it again.</p>

<!-- Slide 22: What Loads at Session Start -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="33">
<h1>What Loads at Session Start</h1>
<p>The moment you open Claude Code, certain things land in Claude's brain <strong>before you've typed a word</strong>. The rest waits in the wings &mdash; only loaded when you actually need it. This is called <strong>progressive disclosure</strong>.</p>

<!-- Slide 23: Keep the Brain Clear -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="34">
<h1>Keep the Brain Clear</h1>
<p>The more stuff crammed into Claude's brain, the harder it is to focus on what matters. This is called <strong>context rot</strong> &mdash; performance drops as the brain gets crowded.</p>
<div class="info-box">
<h4>Tip from Thariq (Anthropic) &mdash; Apr 16, 2026</h4>
<p>"Every turn is a branching point." After Claude finishes a response, you don't have to just keep typing. You have <strong>five options</strong> &mdash; and four of them exist to keep the brain clear.</p>

<!-- Slide 30: How CLAUDE.md Loads -->

<div class="two-col">
<div class="col-card" style="border-left: 4px solid #2196f3;">
<h4>Ancestor Loading (UP)</h4>
<p>At startup, Claude walks <strong>upward</strong> from your current directory and loads every CLAUDE.md it finds.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px;"><strong>Always loaded immediately.</strong></p>
</div>
<div class="col-card" style="border-left: 4px solid #ff9800;">
<h4>Descendant Loading (DOWN)</h4>
<p>CLAUDE.md files in subdirectories below you are loaded <strong>lazily</strong> &mdash; only when Claude reads files in those folders.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px;"><strong>Loaded on demand.</strong></p>
</div>
</div>
<div class="code-block"><span class="comment"># Example: running `claude` from /myapp</span>

<p>Commands are how you turn a multi-step prompt into a single keystroke that anyone on your team can run.</p>

<!-- Slide 36: Two Ways Skills Are Used -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="47">
<h1>Two Ways Skills Are Used</h1>
<p>The weather workflow demonstrates both skill patterns in a single flow:</p>
<div class="two-col">
<div class="col-card" style="border-left: 4px solid #9c27b0;">
<h4>Pattern 1: Agent Skill (Preloaded)</h4>
<p><code>weather-fetcher</code> is listed in the agent's <code>skills:</code> field.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px;">Its full content is <strong>injected into the agent's context</strong> at startup. The agent reads it like a reference manual.</p>
<div class="code-block" style="font-size: 0.8rem;"><span class="comment"># In weather-agent.md</span>
<span class="key">skills</span>:
- <span class="string">weather-fetcher</span></div>
</div>
<div class="col-card" style="border-left: 4px solid #2196f3;">
<h4>Pattern 2: Direct Invocation</h4>
<p><code>weather-svg-creator</code> is called directly by the command via the Skill tool.</p>
<p style="margin-top: 12px;">It runs <strong>independently</strong> in the command's context, not inside any agent.</p>
<div class="code-block" style="font-size: 0.8rem;"><span class="comment"># In the command prompt</span>
<span class="cmd">Skill</span>(<span class="key">skill</span>: <span class="string">"weather-svg-creator"</span>)</div>

<!-- Slide 37: How to Wire Your Own Workflow -->
<div class="slide" data-slide="48">
<h1>How to Wire Your Own Workflow</h1>
<p>A workflow isn't a separate file type. It <em>emerges</em> when one command calls agents and skills in sequence.</p>
<div class="how-to-trigger">
<h4>The Recipe</h4>
<p>One <strong>command</strong> at the top. One <strong>agent</strong> with a <strong>skill</strong> preloaded for fetching. One <strong>skill</strong> at the end for output. Wire them in the command file.</p>
</div>
<div class="hiring-steps">
<div class="hiring-step level-1">
<span class="hiring-step-number">1</span>
<div class="hiring-step-content">
<strong>Write the command (entry point)</strong>
<span><code>.claude/commands/weather-orchestrator.md</code> &mdash; the playbook the user types.</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="hiring-step level-2">
<span class="hiring-step-number">2</span>
<div class="hiring-step-content">
<strong>Write the agent and its preloaded skill</strong>
<span><code>.claude/agents/weather-agent.md</code> with <code>skills: [weather-fetcher]</code> in its config &mdash; the specialist + their training.</span>
</div>
</div>
<div class="hiring-step level-3">
<span class="hiring-step-number">3</span>
<div class="hiring-step-content">
<strong>Write the output skill</strong>
<span><code>.claude/skills/weather-svg-creator/SKILL.md</code> &mdash; invoked directly by the command after the agent returns.</span>
</div>
</div>
</div>
<div class="analogy-box">
<h4>Think of it like this</h4>
<p>The workflow is the <strong>relay race</strong>. The command is the starter pistol. The agent is runner one (fetches the data, hands the baton back). The skill is runner two (turns the data into a visual). You don't run the race &mdash; you just point and say "go."</p>

<h4>Takeaway</h4>
<p>Every workflow you'll ever build follows this same shape: <strong>Command at the top, Agent + Skill in the middle, Skill at the end</strong>. Once you've wired one, the rest are variations on the theme.</p>
