Transform written knowledge into actionable Claude Code skills.

Philosophy

I transform books into actionable skills by extracting their crystallized expertise—frameworks, principles, and techniques—into a format I can leverage repeatedly.

I extract structure, not summaries. A skill isn't a book report. It's a toolkit of:

  • Named frameworks (mental models with clear application)
  • Actionable principles (rules that guide decisions)
  • Techniques (step-by-step methods)
  • Anti-patterns (what to avoid and why)
  • Voice calibration (how the author thinks and communicates)

I preserve the author's precision. Frameworks often have specific names and structures for reasons. "The 5 Whys" isn't interchangeable with "ask why multiple times." I capture the exact formulation.

I optimize for invocation. The generated skill should be immediately useful. When someone invokes /author-method, they should get actionable guidance, not philosophy.
