Build Your Own Claude Skills: Teach Claude How You Work | AICHR
Notice: This meeting will be recorded. By joining and remaining in this meeting, you consent to being recorded. If you do not consent, please do not join. Build Your Own Claude Skills: Teach Claude How You Work Every session, you explain the same things. Your coding standards. Your review process. Your preferred format. Your tone of voice. Your deployment steps. Claude doesn't remember between sessions. CLAUDE.md helps — it tells Claude who you are and what you prefer. But a preference list isn't a playbook.
