By now they have built something real and hit real friction. This week they capture it so the team can rerun it.
Before · async
They mark the steps they already repeated by hand this week. Those steps are the command, not a new project.
In class · 1h15
We turn one of those loops into a skill (a reusable command) anyone on the team can run. Then we look at connecting tools they already pay for (email, calendar, the CRM) and when that connection is not worth the friction.
After · async
They leave one reusable workflow, plus a written call on what to connect and what to leave alone.
Skills are the reusable procedures they teach the model (a named way to redo a job). MCP is the connector layer: attach tools you already pay for when the round-trip is worth it. If connecting a tool adds more friction than it removes, you do not connect it.
Artifact One workflow they already did by hand, now reusable. Judgment on connecting email, calendar, or the CRM.
