The Take

Packages product-thinking into an Agent Skill so your agent can answer like 'Steve Jobs' — heuristics, constraints and example responses live inside a deployable skill compatible with MCP-enabled platforms. Clever and immediately useful for design critiques, but the post prioritizes argument over onboarding: show the skill manifest, install steps and sample inputs up front and this would convert curiosity into actual usage.

Post Description

Hi there,

I found it very useful recently to have my own "Steve Jobs in my pocket" when developing with Claude Code. I can ask it what Steve Jobs would think and usually comes up with great user, simplicity, and story-first thinking.

I thought this might be useful for others, so sharing it here. In the article I also describe why I think skills are the new apps, just with different economics. If you haven't tried them yet, it's certainly worth it. Much more of a change to "default" Claude Code than without.

Happy to hear any feedback!
