Just built my first AI Agent Skill in VS Code

Showcase ✨

So I finally made my first custom AI Agent Skill in VS Code with GitHub Copilot.

Basically, I made a SKILL.md that tells the AI how I want it to help with beginner Python problems break things down, give examples, check the code, and even throw in some practice questions.

Honestly, the coolest part was writing the instructions myself and then seeing the AI actually follow them.

I'm still learning a ton, but this was a pretty fun first project. Now I wanna see what else I can make with Agent Skills.

What kind of Skill would you build first?
