KeepYourEdgeAI — Module 8 Worksheet

Personal Skill Folder Starter Kit

Stop writing one-off prompts. Build a reusable library of AI "skills" — structured prompt templates that make every interaction faster, sharper, and more consistent. Inspired by professional agent frameworks like PicoAgents, adapted for knowledge workers who don't write code. This is executable knowledge that travels with you.

Test Your Starter Skills

Use each of the 3 starter skills on a real task and evaluate the results.

Intake Skill — What task did you use it on? How did the output compare to asking without the skill?

Research Skill — What topic did you research? Rate the quality of the structured output (1-5):

Draft & Review Skill — What did you write? Did the self-critique step improve the final output?

3

Customize for Your Role

Based on the role-specific examples in the lesson, design 2-3 custom skills for your work.

What is your primary role/function?

Custom Skill 1 — What task will it cover? What should the AI do step-by-step?

Custom Skill 2 — What task will it cover?

Apply the 3x Rule — what tasks have you done 3+ times that should become skills?

🎯 Your Action Plan

Based on what you learned in this module, write 3 concrete next steps.
