Simple explanation
Without a skill pack, every AI coding session starts from almost zero. The AI does not remember that your app must be privacy-first, theme-aware, locale-aware, reusable, and premium-looking. So you end up correcting the same mistakes over and over — broken dark mode, clipped buttons, hardcoded text, duplicate components. A skill pack is a set of written rules your AI coding tool follows before it changes anything. Think of it like a company handbook for your AI developer. You write the standards once, and the AI checks them every time.
What to do
Step 1 — Spot your repeated corrections. Write down the same mistakes your AI keeps making. Examples: hardcoded labels, broken dark mode, clipped buttons, duplicate components, the AI saying "done" without running the build. Step 2 — Use the copy-paste prompt below to ask ChatGPT to create your skill pack. It will generate three files: • An AGENTS.md for Codex (persistent project instructions OpenAI designed for this purpose) • An engineering quality SKILL.md for Claude Code (enforces softcoded text, reusable components, safe architecture) • A mobile UI polish SKILL.md for Claude Code (enforces no clipping, no bleeding, light/dark mode, premium feel) Step 3 — Add the files to your project root and commit them. Step 4 — Start prompts with the skill name instead of repeating your rules: Weak: "Fix the UI and make it look premium." Better: "Use the mobile UI polish skill. Fix this screen without changing business logic. Run the build and report exactly what changed." You do not need to be a developer to do this. ChatGPT writes the files. You paste them in.
Copy-paste prompt
Create an AI coding skill pack for my app project. I am a non-developer, so make it practical and strict. Create: 1. A Codex AGENTS.md file. 2. A Claude Code engineering quality SKILL.md. 3. A Claude Code mobile UI polish SKILL.md. The rules must enforce: - softcoded user-facing text, - locale/translation awareness, - theme-aware colors, - reusable components, - clean architecture, - privacy-safe code, - accessibility, - light/dark mode support, - Android Kotlin Compose best practices, - iOS SwiftUI best practices, - iOS-level smoothness, - no clipping, - no button bleeding, - no overlapping rectangles, - no broken rounded cards, - build/test verification before success reports. Also include install instructions and example prompts for using the skills.
Course note
Key takeaway
Stop correcting the same mistakes manually. Write the rules once in a skill pack and let your AI check them every time it touches your code.
