Turn a book into a Claude Skill

What you'll need
Claude, (written) content
How to do it

Turn a book into a Claude skill. Fetch the PDF of a book or article you enjoy (or anything that can be parsed by Claude) that contains actionable advice. Make sure the PDF/content is not copyrighted and that you have the right to use it. Start a Claude Skills creation process. Ask Claude to read the PDF and create a skill based on it. Install the skill. Now Claude can execute the advice on its own (e.g., a freely shared blog post about decluttering, or a book about fictional writing).
