Day 23: Build the Team Playbook

📅 Day 23 of 30 · Week 4: Ship & Scale · ⏱ 20 minutes

From Personal Skills to Team System

Over the last three weeks, you’ve built individual skills with the WordPress AI stack. Now it’s time to package what works into a playbook that any team member can follow — even if they haven’t gone through this entire program.

Step 1: Catalog Your Workflows

Based on all the content on this site (the Crawl, Walk, Press program),
compile a list of every workflow, prompt, and exercise we've covered.
For each one, include:
- Workflow name
- Which tool(s) it uses
- Time savings estimate
- Complexity level (Beginner / Intermediate / Advanced)
- The day it was introduced

Sort by complexity level, then by frequency of use.

Step 2: Create Prompt Templates

The best prompts you’ve used deserve to be standardized. Ask Claude:

From our workflow catalog, extract the 10 most useful prompts and
format them as a "Prompt Library" page with:

For each prompt:
- A clear name (e.g., "Daily Newsletter Generator")
- The tool it requires (MCP, Studio Code, Telex, etc.)
- The full prompt text (ready to copy-paste)
- Customization notes (what to change for your specific publication)
- Expected output format

Create this as a draft page titled "AI Prompt Library".

Step 3: Write Quick-Start Guides

Not everyone on your team needs the full 30-day program. Create role-specific quick starts:

Create 3 quick-start guides as draft pages:

1. **"AI Quick Start for Writers"** (5 min read)
   - How to use title suggestions and AI content features in the editor
   - 3 prompts for improving drafts
   - The Green/Yellow/Red policy summary

2. **"AI Quick Start for Editors"** (7 min read)
   - The 15-minute editorial sprint
   - Newsletter and content package workflows
   - SEO audit workflow
   - Quality control checklist

3. **"AI Quick Start for Product/Tech"** (10 min read)
   - Studio CLI and Studio Code setup
   - MCP configuration
   - Abilities API overview
   - Performance audit workflow
   - Custom abilities development

Key Takeaway: A playbook turns your personal AI skills into organizational capability. The prompt library alone is worth its weight in gold — it eliminates the “I don’t know what to ask” barrier that stops most teams from adopting AI.
