PocketArCClaude Code skills are the next thing to get good at
I've been playing with Claude Code skills this weekend and wow, this is cool.
I started by creating separate agents for different tasks: one for bookmarking URLs, one for creating quick notes, and one for adding entries to my weekly devlog. They worked fine, but then I realized I could turn them into a skill.
What I learned is that when you turn agents into a skill, you can call on them from anywhere and the skill has access to the current conversation context. So if I've been discussing a project and I say "add this to my devlog," the skill already knows what "this" refers to.
A sub-agent would have to be given a context prompt by the main agent, which might miss some of the nuance of whatever the work being done was. It makes for much better notes because I don't have to re-explain everything.
