Before you install anything
Three places you'll use. Find them now:
- Customize → Skills — left sidebar. This is where skills get uploaded.
- Customize → Connectors — same menu. This is where your tools plug in.
- The + button in any chat — bottom of the chat box, next to the mic. This is where plugins live.
Most of this works on any paid plan. Zero of it needs a terminal.
PART 1 OF 3
The 6 skills
The universal move for any skill on GitHub: open the repo → green Code button → Download ZIP. Then in Claude: Customize → Skills → + → Upload skill → pick the ZIP. That's the whole thing.
SKILL 01
Strips the AI tells out of your writing. Em dashes, "delve," the fake-deep endings. 35K+ GitHub stars. Download the ZIP, upload it in Customize → Skills.
SKILL 02
A design director living inside Claude. Everything you build stops looking AI-made. This one installs as a plugin: in any chat, click + → Plugins → Browse plugins, hit the + in the top right → Add from a repository, and paste the repo link.
SKILL 03
Anthropic's official skill that interviews you, then builds custom skills for you. In any chat: + → Plugins → Browse plugins→ search the Anthropic skills, or add the repo. Install the example skills set.
SKILL 04
Real Word docs, PowerPoints, and Excel files out of Claude. Same repo as #3 — install the document skills set. One repo, two installs.
SKILL 05
The skill that finds and installs other skills for you. Download the ZIP and upload just the find-skills folder, or paste this into Claude Code: "Install the find-skills skill from github.com/vercel-labs/skills"
SKILL 06
My own build. A direct-response copywriter trained on 100+ legendary sales letters — Halbert, Schwartz, Kennedy, Carlton. Download the ZIP, upload it in Customize → Skills, then ask it to write your next landing page.
PART 2 OF 3
The 4 plugins
All plugins install the same way. Start a new chat, click the + at the bottom (next to the mic), click Plugins → Browse plugins, and search. If it's not in the default directory, click the + in the top right → Add from a repository and paste the repo link below.
PLUGIN 01
context7
Live, current documentation so Claude stops building with outdated info. Search context7in Browse plugins. Backup route: Customize → Connectors → Add custom connector, URL: https://mcp.context7.com/mcp
PLUGIN 02
A complete build methodology with 14 skills baked in. Claude plans, tests, and checks its own work. Add from a repository with the link.
PLUGIN 03
345 skills across marketing, product, finance, and C-suite advisory. Add from a repository, then install only the bundles that match your work. One bundle you use beats ten you don't.
PLUGIN 04
OpenAI's official plugin that puts Codex inside Claude Code. Two AIs reviewing each other's work. Add from a repository with the link. Heads up: it needs the Codex CLI — paste "install the Codex CLI for me"into Claude Code and it handles it. You'll also need a ChatGPT account.
PART 3 OF 3
The 6 connectors
All in Customize → Connectors. The first four are one click each.
CONNECTOR 01
Gmail
Find it in the directory, click Connect, sign in with Google. Claude reads, triages, and drafts your email. It can never hit send. You do.
CONNECTOR 02
Google Drive
Directory, Connect, sign in. Your files and docs on tap in every chat.
CONNECTOR 03
Slack
Directory, Connect. Posts updates, reads channels, pulls action items from conversations you didn't have time to read.
CONNECTOR 04
Canva
Directory, Connect. Describe a design in a sentence, edit it in Canva.
CONNECTOR 05
Meta Ads
Add custom connector, name it Meta Ads, URL: https://mcp.facebook.com/ads. This is Meta's OFFICIAL server — sign in with Facebook and pick your business portfolio. Don't use unofficial Meta MCPs. People have lost ad accounts over it.
CONNECTOR 06
Apify
Add custom connector, name it Apify, URL: https://mcp.apify.com. Web scraping on command — research, lead lists, competitor content.
One more thing: connectors are per-conversation. In any chat, click + → Connectors and toggle on the ones you want Claude using right now.
The order that makes sense
Day one, morning: the four one-click connectors. Gmail, Drive, Slack, Canva. Ten minutes total.
Day one, afternoon:humanizer, impeccable, and the anthropics/skills repo. That's 80% of the value right there.
Week one: everything else, one at a time, as you hit the problem each one solves. Installing all 16 in one sitting and using none of them is the same as installing zero.
The Next Step
Guides show you what. AI Builders shows you how.
Inside the community, I walk through every build live, including the stuff that doesn't make it into guides. Regular people (not developers) figuring out AI together, shipping real projects, asking me anything. No fluff, no theory, just the actual work.
