The story
I’m a bakery owner.
Parsley bakery, Yogyakarta.
I want a brief report of Google Maps reviews.
The pain
- Reviews are scattered and noisy
- Reading every review takes time
- You still need a human decision at the end
What are “AI Skills”?
- Reusable micro-workflows
- A capability with a clear input/output contract
- Helps you get consistent results, not random answers
AI skills ≠ prompting
- Prompting: one-off conversation
- Skills: repeatable building blocks
- Better for teams: easier to reuse and review
Why use AI skills?
- Consistency: same format every time
- Delegation: you provide goal + constraints
- Speed: less time on repetitive work
Good model: human + AI
- Human: sets the goal and decides
- AI: drafts, summarizes, structures
- Human: verifies, edits, ships
Guardrails (important for HR)
- Privacy: don’t paste secrets, keys, or private personal data
- Accuracy: treat output as draft, verify sources
- Bias: ask for assumptions and blind spots
From skills → systems
If a workflow is repeatable, automate it.
TRAE SOLO mental model
- Agent session: understands your task
- Skills: plug-in capabilities
- Automation: schedule it to run without you
Better results = better inputs
- Context: who, what, where, why
- Constraints: tone, length, format, audience
- Review loop: assumptions, edge cases, “what could be wrong?”
