AI agents are only as good as their skills
We're turning Cameron AI into an expense report expert with Agent Skills - find out how!
Hey there,
Over the past few months, we've been building Cameron AI piece by piece, first we designed its prompts, then we gave it well-designed tools.
But prompts and tools alone aren't enough. Agents need domain expertise, the kind of specialized knowledge that turns a capable assistant into a true expert.
That's where Agent Skills come in.
In this new guide, we take Cameron from a generic finance assistant to one that generates professional expense reports with charts and insights — all by packaging workflow knowledge into a single portable skill.
What you'll learn:
- What Agent Skills are (and how they complement MCP)
- How to structure a SKILL.md file with progressive disclosure
- Building a complete visualization skill from scratch — with scripts, reference guides, and templates
- How to deploy and test your skill in Claude, Cursor, or any compatible agent
If you've followed the Cameron AI series, this is the natural next step. If you're new here, the article links back to the prompting and tools articles so you can catch up.
Until next time,
Ibrahim
