This is Day 14 of the “AI Path: Advanced Upgrade Guide” Week 3 series. Previous post: Day 13 Practice. Project repo: picture-book-pipeline. Introduction In Day 13, I built a skill through six rounds of conversation. A skill is made of role documents, one per role. The agent works from those documents.
