Bonus: The Automations Builder Skill
This is the skill that bridges everything you've learned into what the full course teaches. Included in your Starter Kit.
The /build-automation skill turns plain English into a working multi-step workflow. You describe what you want to happen — Claude designs the steps, identifies the tools, and builds it.
No code. No configuration. Just describe it.
Example 1:
"/build-automation Every morning, check my top 3 priority emails, summarise them, and send the summaries to me on Telegram before 8am."
Claude identifies Gmail MCP + Telegram MCP, designs the workflow, writes the file, tells you how to run it.
Example 2:
"/build-automation When I give you a company name, research them on the web, check for recent news, and create a one-page brief in Notion."
Claude uses Brave Search + Firecrawl + Notion MCPs and builds it as a reusable skill.
Most people use AI reactively — ask, get answer, move on. Automations flip that. You define the workflow once. Claude runs it on demand, every time.
The full course teaches you to build these from the ground up — pipelines that chain tools together, scheduled automations, tools other people can use. If you want to go from "my AI does tasks for me" to "my AI runs systems for me", that's what comes next.
