🧬 What Is This?

A collection of 72 autonomous Claude AI skills for communication students — covering six departments across the entire Faculty of Communication curriculum.

Each skill transforms Claude into an agentic domain expert that researches the web, reads your project files, creates production-ready deliverables, self-reviews its own output, and iterates — not just advises.

[!TIP] How it works: Each skill is a structured .md prompt file. Drop it into a Claude Project or Claude Code, and Claude instantly becomes your creative production expert — with real industry frameworks, professional output templates, and deep domain knowledge.

⚡ What Makes These Skills Different?

These aren't chatbot personas. They're autonomous agents that execute a full research → create → review cycle:

[!NOTE] Agentic Workflow: Every skill follows this autonomous cycle — Research (search web for current data) → Context (read existing project files) → Create (write structured deliverable) → Review (assess quality & completeness) → Present (summarize + offer 3 next paths).
