Claude Chat · Skills Self-Check
Check each box you can do with confidence, then score yourself below. Check a box only if you could do it right now without looking it up.
Be honest — this is a personal gut-check, not a grade. Use your results to identify where to focus and to have a real conversation with your manager about where to grow.
01
Judgment & Accuracy
✓
Verify before use. I review and fact-check outputs before relying on or sending them.
✓
Know the limits. I know what Claude is good at — and where human judgment must take over.
✓
Mind the cutoff. I know Claude's knowledge has a training cutoff and confirm recent facts.
✓
Catch the misses. I notice and correct when Claude misunderstands or gets it wrong.
02
Responsible & Secure Use
✓
Protect data. I keep confidential, personal, and credential information out of prompts.
✓
Follow the Code of Conduct. I apply our company AI standards and disclose AI use when required.
✓
Know where to get help. I know who to ask and where to learn more.
03
Prompting Fundamentals
✓
Clear instructions. I give specific asks with enough context for Claude to do it well.
✓
Show, don't just tell. I provide an example of the output I want when it helps.
✓
Think it through. I ask Claude to reason step by step on complex problems.
✓
Set the frame. I specify format, length, tone, and audience when they matter.
04
Working with Content & Files
✓
Bring your own material. I upload documents, spreadsheets, PDFs, and images to work from.
✓
Use Artifacts. I create and iteratively edit docs, code, and deliverables in the side panel.
✓
Draft, edit, revise. I have Claude summarize, rewrite, and refine my content with simple direction.
✓
Analyze and extract. I use Claude to pull insights, patterns, and key points from large content.
05
Features & Settings
✓
Web search. I know that web search is enabled for all Spire accounts and ask for citations when I need current or time-sensitive information.
✓
Projects. I organize related chats into Projects to keep context and materials together.
✓
Styles & preferences. I tailor Claude's voice and formatting to how I like to work.
✓
Memory & past chats. I understand how Claude references prior conversations and how to manage it.
