Turning an AI feature design process into a reusable AI skill

Package a repeatable AI product feature design workflow into a Claude Skill so the model can co-pilot the designer from early validation (โ€œshould this even exist?โ€) through structured steps and outputs.

Why the human is still essential here

The designer retains judgment and makes the design decisions; the AI handles research, structuring, and drafting to accelerate the workflow.

How people use this

Skill-based feature concept kickoff

A Claude Skill guides the designer through problem framing, assumptions, and success metrics, outputting a structured kickoff brief for review.

Reusable AI feature design playbook prompts

The workflow is encoded as a repeatable multi-step prompt sequence so each new AI feature starts from the same rigorous checklist and structure.

Automated market scan summary pack

The skill collects competitor patterns and comparable product behaviors and compiles a concise opportunity summary the designer can validate.

I built an AI Feature Design Skill using Claude Skills and I honestly didnโ€™t expect it to become this useful.

I built an AI Feature Design Skill using Claude Skills and I honestly didnโ€™t expect it to become this useful.

I wanted a way to design for AI products without starting from scratch every time so I turned my entire AI feature design process into a Claude Skill.

Now Claude basically co-pilots me from the first question โ€œshould this even exist?โ€ all the way to a ready-to-present concept deck.


It runs through 6 steps together with me:


๐Ÿงญ Context & Market Scan: What already exists and where real opportunities are.


๐Ÿง  AI Capability Analysis: Which AI capabilities actually make sense for the problem.


๐ŸŽฏ Use Case Expansion: Core scenarios, edge cases, and high-impact moments.


๐Ÿ—บ UX Flow & Interaction Design: How humans and AI share responsibility.


๐Ÿ’ฅ Failure & Trust Simulation: What could break and how to design for trust early.


๐Ÿš€ MVP Scope + Expert Pack: What to ship first plus a presentation-ready output.


The dynamic is my favorite part: Claude does the research, structuring, and heavy lifting.

I stay responsible for judgment and design decisions.


And honestly, Claude Skills feel like a completely different way of working compared to normal prompting.

Iโ€™ve started building more and more of my workflows this way and it keeps surprising me whatโ€™s possible.

Want the skill?


Drop a comment and DM me with "AI Skill" I'll send it over.


If you have feedback, please share it with me. This isnโ€™t meant to be a fixed framework everyone has to follow. Itโ€™s simply something that works really well for me and my own workflow right now.


And I'd genuinely love to know:

โ†’ Are you building Claude Skills into your workflow?

โ†’ What would you add or change here?
