Pick Your Fighter: Deciding Between Skills, GPTs, Tasks and Agents
You know what you want AI to do, but now you have to decide whether it should be a skill, GPT, task, hook, plugin, or agent, and the answer can change depending on whether you’re working in Claude, ChatGPT, Codex, or somewhere else. The names overlap, the features don’t line up perfectly, and more than one option might work.
We’ll sort through the differences by looking at the work itself: Who starts it? How often does it run? What does it need to know or connect to? How much should it decide on its own? We’ll build a few examples more than one way and talk through why you might choose one, combine a few, or stop before you’ve built way too much.
Walk away with a simple way to decide, not another list of features to memorize.
Always Allow is hands-on AI strategy and training for people who learn by building. If you’ve ever used AI and thought, “I know I can get more from this,” you should join us.
