Ten Layers of AI Skill Construction: A Systematic Framework from Prompts to Business Closed Loops

Large model applications are evolving from "conversational Q&A" to "skill-based execution." When an AI assistant no longer just chats with you but can automatically complete an entire business workflow, it needs more than a good prompt—it needs a structured Skill system.

But here's the problem: How should Skills be constructed? The gap between the simplest prompt file and an end-to-end business closed loop is enormous. Many teams don't know which stage they're at, let alone where to go next.

This article distills AI Skill construction into ten progressive layers, from the most basic pure-prompt Skill to the most complex master-level business closed loop, forming a complete systematic framework. Each layer has clear capability boundaries, typical structures, and evaluation criteria to help you定位 your current level and plan your upgrade path.
