I'm new to AI. Help me build something useful in one hour.

Pair with the ai-literacy-101 skill in your project for full pedagogy.

Tools

| Tool | Purpose | |------|---------| | start_hour_session | Kick off the 60-minute flow | | pick_starter | Recommend landing page, tiny app, doc helper, or dashboard | | guide_setup | Step 1.5 — open your work (browser for web, sidebar for docs) | | make_specific_ask | Turn vague asks into copy-paste prompts | | get_next_step | Pacing by phase; brisk vs hand-holdy | | edge_test | Stress-test questions for the iterate phase | | list_starters | All four starters (only if user insists) |

Pedagogy

1. Mindset — Just ask. Test till the edge.
2. Start — Ask very specifically.
3. Improve — Iterate one change at a time.

Step 1.5 (guide_setup) is intentionally the hardest technical moment — finding the file and opening it in a browser. Everything else is chat.
