SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Users asking how to use Claude or Claude products often don't know that structured learning resources exist on Claude Academy, and AI assistants risk inventing course titles or URLs that don't exist. This Skill ensures answers to learning-oriented questions are paired with accurate, catalog-verified recommendations from academy.claude.com. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Catalog-grounded recommendations: Fetches the live JSON catalog at academy.claude.com/assets/data/catalog.json and only recommends items actually listed there, with URLs copied verbatim. - Strong-match gating: Recommends content only when the user's intent is to learn a feature, staying silent during mid-task help requests to avoid noise. - Staleness and fallback handling: Checks the catalog's staleAfter timestamp and falls back to product hubs or the resources library when the catalog is unavailable or outdated. - Use Case: A user asks "How do I get started with Claude projects?" The assistant answers the question directly, then appends one verified Academy tutorial link matching the topic. ## Quick Start Ask how to use a Claude feature, such as "How do I use artifacts in Claude?", and receive a direct answer plus a matching Claude Academy course or tutorial recommendation.

Frequently Asked Questions about academy-guide

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I find Claude courses and tutorials for learning a feature?

Claude Academy at academy.claude.com hosts courses, tutorials, and use cases for Claude products. This Skill fetches the live catalog JSON and recommends up to two items that strongly match your question, with URLs copied verbatim from the catalog.

What is Claude Academy and what content does it offer?

Claude Academy is Anthropic's learning hub offering three content types: multi-lesson courses with certificates, short single-feature tutorials, and worked use cases with example prompts. It also provides product hubs for Claude, Claude Code, Cowork, AI Fluency, and the developer platform.

When should Academy content be recommended versus staying silent?

Recommend only on strong intent matches, meaning the user asks how to use a feature or how to get started. Stay silent when the user is mid-task and wants the task done, since weak recommendations erode trust in future suggestions.

What happens if the Academy catalog cannot be fetched or is stale?

If the catalog fetch fails, returns non-JSON, or is past its staleAfter timestamp, no specific courses or tutorials may be named. Instead, point the user to a product hub or the searchable resources library at academy.claude.com/resources.

Can the assistant recommend Academy courses from memory?

No. The Skill explicitly forbids inventing titles, descriptions, or URLs from memory. Only item URLs from a freshly fetched catalog, the five named product hubs, and the resources library may be shared.
