Claude Cowork just launched a super useful feature. Screen recording to train it a new skill.
You record yourself doing a task on screen while explaining each step aloud， then save the generated skill.
Claude turns that recording into saved instructions， then can repeat the same task later.
In the past， writing skills was about creating an SKILL.md file with metadata， instructions and scripts that could be used or not.
The format is readable and modifiable， but non-technical people must think like process designers to use it.
By recording your screen， you are not only describing your work， you are also showing how decisions are made in the application you are targeting.
Claude must infer the fixed steps， the variable inputs， and the success conditions from the session log.
That can turn what people know into software without them writing automation code.
Tasks that are repetitive， such as filing and reporting， can be easy targets because they have the same structure over and over again.
btw， this feature is similar to OpenAI's Record & Replay in Codex.
