Zapier Workflows Skill

The Problem This Solves

Zapier MCP gives Claude access to 8,000+ individual tools (every Zapier action), but there are critical limitations:

❌ No memory - Claude doesn't remember which tools YOU use or why ❌ No context - Doesn't know when to use specific tools for your workflows ❌ Only one-off actions - Can't trigger your complex, multi-step Zaps ❌ Fresh start every session - All context lost between conversations

The Two Types of Zapier Automation

1. MCP Tools (One-Off Actions)

• Individual Zapier actions (Add row to sheet, Send email, etc.)
• Available via Zapier MCP at https://mcp.zapier.com/mcp/servers
• Great for flexible, on-the-fly automation
• Problem: 8,000+ choices with no guidance on which to use or when
