Build Your ChatKit Skill

You built REST APIs in Chapter 40. But agents are conversational, not request/​response. Before learning ChatKit Server, you'll own a ChatKit skill.


Step 1: Get the Skills Lab

  1. Go to github.com/​panaversity/​claude-code-skills-lab
  2. Click the green Code button
  3. Select Download ZIP
  4. Extract the ZIP file
  5. Open the extracted folder in your terminal
cd claude-code-skills-lab
claude

Step 2: Create Your Skill

Copy and paste this prompt:

Using your skill creator skill create a new skill for ChatKit Server. I will
use it to build conversational AI backends from hello world to professional
production systems. Use context7 skill to study official documentation and
then build it so no self assumed knowledge.

Claude will:

  1. Fetch official ChatKit documentation via Context7
  2. Ask you clarifying questions (session management, streaming needs, auth patterns)
  3. Create the complete skill with references and templates

Your skill appears at .claude/​skills/​chatkit-server/.


Done

You now own a ChatKit skill built from official documentation. The rest of this chapter teaches you what it knows—and how to make it better.
