AI that actually helps when things go wrong
Stuff breaks. Systems go down. People run late. Priorities flip mid-day.
Someone skips a step and suddenly someone else is jumping in to clean it up.
That’s real work. And honestly, that’s where agent skills start to matter.
This isn’t just about AI answering questions anymore. It’s about AI actually being part of the flow. Pulling the right info at the right time, kicking off the next step without being asked, helping people make calls faster, connecting tools that usually don’t talk, and keeping things moving even when everything feels messy.
That’s the shift.
We’re not just prompting AI and hoping for a smart reply. We’re giving it real capabilities so it can show up in real situations where there’s pressure and things aren’t perfectly defined.
It’s great to see Microsoft opening up these repos across Dataverse, Power Platform, Copilot Studio, Fabric, and Azure. This is the kind of stuff that actually helps builders move past demos and into things that people can rely on.
If you’re building in this space, definitely worth checking out the AI Skills repos for Dataverse, Power Platform, Copilot Studio, Fabric, Azure, and Azure DevOps.
The future isn’t just AI that sounds good.
It’s AI that actually helps get work done.

I think that AI is a really usefull tool in the brainstorming phase, it is able to "materialize" thoughts, and make them deeper.
This time I thought about a workflow for the fashion industry, able to generate few editorial/still life photos of fashion sketches and then a small fashion video.
With this even the most emerging designer can visualize better his/her dreams and why not use this kind of material to find investors or sell more structured ideas.

Claude Design just launched.
In their demo, Anthropic showed an interactive globe built for a website.
I recreated it in @Rive in 𝟮 𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝟰𝟮 𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀. Almost for free.
Round 1: Claude Design. Prompted, iterated, tweaked the sliders. Beautiful globe running, fully interactive.
𝟭𝟯𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝟭𝟵𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀. Also 64% of my weekly plan, gone.
Round 2: Rive Agent alone. Opened Rive, prompted the AI Coding Agent, built a Luau script with state machine and momentum physics. Native-ready for iOS, Android, web.
𝟱𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝟯𝟳𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀. Around $10 in AI credits.
Round 3: Both, composed. I asked regular Claude (free) to write the Luau logic. Pasted it into Rive. Errors everywhere, Claude doesn't know Rive's types. So I asked Rive Agent to fix it.
𝟮𝗺𝗶𝗻𝘂𝘁𝗲𝘀 𝟰𝟮𝘀𝗲𝗰𝗼𝗻𝗱𝘀. Fix cost around $3.
The fastest workflow wasn't just one "AI-native" tool. It was combining two tools, using each for what they do best.
Stop asking: "Which tool replaces my workflow?" Start asking: "Which combination wins?"
What tool stacks are you testing for production-ready work? Curious to hear, especially from anyone building for production, not just prototypes.
(If you're working on something interactive and want someone to both push back on your ideas and ship them, let's talk)
