Anthropic Claude Skills: Enterprise AI Gets Smarter

Anthropic has rolled out substantial updates to its Claude Skills feature, originally launched in October, significantly enhancing its utility for enterprise users. This AI assistant can now be taught to perform repeatable tasks with greater efficiency and customization. The enhancements aim to streamline professional workflows by allowing Claude to reference specific instructions and resources, such as brand guidelines, to execute specialized tasks autonomously.

A major development is Anthropic's introduction of the Agent Skills specification as an open standard. This initiative, similar to their previous work on the Model Context Protocol, aims to simplify the sharing and deployment of AI skills across organizations and the broader community. This move fosters greater collaboration and interoperability within the AI ecosystem.
