Add the Companion to Claude
The Companion is a Claude Skill: a small instruction file you add to your Claude account once. It is not an app, so there is nothing to open or install on your computer.

Download the skill
Download taoam-book-companion.skill
These steps use Claude on a computer, either at claude.ai in a web browser or in the Claude desktop app.
Add it in four steps
- Download the file above. Leave it as it is; there is no need to double-click or unzip it.
- Open Claude, sign in, and go to Customize → Skills. In a browser you can go straight to claude.ai/customize/skills.
- Click + (or Add), choose Upload a skill, and select
taoam-book-companion.skill, usually in your Downloads folder. - Check that taoam-book-companion appears in your skills list and is switched on.
Try it
Start a new chat and begin your message with /taoam-book, for example /taoam-book what is a manifold. Without /taoam-book, Claude answers normally.
If something does not work
- No Skills page or upload option. Skills need file creation turned on. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on Code execution and file creation (called Create and edit files in some versions).
- Claude through work or school. On Team and Enterprise plans an administrator may need to allow skills before you can upload one.
- The file cannot be selected. A
.skillfile is a ZIP archive. Rename it totaoam-book-companion.zipand upload that instead.
Anthropic’s guide, Use skills in Claude, covers skills in more detail. For questions about the Companion itself, see Support.
