If you build with AI, you've lived this

  • You asked for less purple. It gave you indigo.
  • It said “fixed.” The buy button still doesn't work.
  • Every new chat starts with the same speech about your brand, your buyer and your rules.
  • You hit the usage limit before the page was done.
  • Your page looks like every other AI page, and visitors notice right away.

Same cause every time. Your AI is working without the manual.

Your AI does the average thing until it gets a manual

Out of the box, an AI agent builds what it has seen most: the purple gradient, the centered hero, the confident “done.” Ask for something new and it guesses.

A skill is that manual. It's a folder with a SKILL.md file inside, with written instructions for one job, done the way a specialist would do it. Your agent reads it only when that job comes up, so you write the rules once instead of in every chat.

Many of these skills come from the companies that make the tools, like Stripe's own guide to taking payments and Anthropic's design skill.

Who it's for

It's for you if

  • You sell online (a digital product, a small shop, a service) and build with AI.

  • You don't write code, or you'd rather not.

Questions

Aren't skills free?

Yes. Every skill in the book is free and public on GitHub. You're paying for the picking: which 56 to use, what each one does in plain English, the line that installs it, a request to try, and the date we checked it.

Do I need to know how to code?

No. You need an AI agent that works with files on your computer, like Claude Code, Codex or Cursor. The install line uses Node.js 22.20 or later. If you don't have it, ask your agent to install the skill from its GitHub repository; every card names it.

Is this a list of prompts?

No. Each card points to a public repository you can read before you install anything. The request at the end of each card is there so you can see the skill working.

Will it be out of date in a month?

Skills change, so every source has a date: October 20, 2026. New tricks go up on Instagram at @trickbook.ai.

Is it safe to install skills?

Some skills run programs on your computer, so read before you trust. Each card names its repository, and the book flags anything that needs an account, sends data to a company, or comes with its own license.

What exactly do I get?

A 24-page PDF in English. You get access by email right after payment.

Can I get a refund?

Yes. If a guide isn't what you expected, email us within 7 days of your purchase and we'll refund you in full. Details in our refund policy.

Is Trickbook part of Anthropic, OpenAI or any company in the book?

No. Trickbook is an independent guide. Skill names, repositories and trademarks belong to their owners.
