Agent Skills with Anthropic

DeepLearning.AI and Anthropic teach how to package reusable instructions as agent skills. Learners explore skill structure, progressive disclosure, pre-built and custom skills, then use them with Claude API, Claude Code and the Claude Agent SDK. Examples address coding, data analysis and research workflows, including the relationship between skills, tools, MCP and subagents. The page labels the course beginner and addresses AI builders.
