    Open your assistant's settings and add the file. That is the whole install.

    Claude · web or desktop

    Settings → Capabilities → Skills → Upload skill. Pick the file and switch it on. On Claude Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise.

    ChatGPT

    Settings → Skills → New skill → Upload from your computer. On ChatGPT Business, Enterprise and Edu plans.

  3. Just ask for it

    Setup is done. Say what you want in plain English and your AI runs the skill on its own, with no command to memorise. See the prompts to try →

How to use it.

Run this one first. It asks you a handful of questions about your work, then saves your answers as a context file the rest of your OpenKit skills read automatically. Five minutes, once.

  1. Ask your AI to start it

    Open Claude and say "Run build-user-context." It begins a short interview in plain English.

  2. Answer for five minutes

    Cover your role, your company, who your customers are, the tasks you do most, and how you like to write. More detail makes every other skill sharper.

  3. It saves your context

    The skill writes a user-context file into your skills folder. Skills like inbox triage then describe your business correctly without you repeating yourself.

  4. Rerun when things change

    Changed role, pivoted the company, or took on a new kind of customer? Run it again and the file updates.

Common questions.

What is the Build user context skill?

It is a free Claude skill that runs a five-minute interview and generates a personal context file. Every other OpenKit skill reads that file at runtime, so it already knows who you are and how you work.

Where is my context file stored, and does it leave my computer?

The context file is local to your machine. The skill runs inside your own AI account and the file stays with you; OpenKit never receives it.

Is the Build user context skill free?

Yes. It is free and MIT-licensed on GitHub, and you do not need a paid Claude plan. Skills are available on the free plan as well as Pro, Max, Team and Enterprise.

Do I need to know how to code to use it?

No. A Claude skill is just a folder of plain-text instructions Claude reads, so there is nothing to code. You run the five-minute interview in Claude and it writes the context file for you.

What does the Build user context skill actually do?

It interviews you for about five minutes and turns your answers into a personal context file. Your other OpenKit skills read that file at runtime, so you do not have to re-explain your role, preferences or priorities each time.

How do I install a Claude skill from GitHub?

Download the skill from GitHub and add it in your AI's settings under Skills, then switch it on. It works the same in Claude and ChatGPT, with no coding needed.

Need a skill the library doesn't cover?

We build bespoke skills, agents, and AI integrations for regulated industries. Same approach as the library: open-source where it can be, governed where it must be.
