# Anthropic

## Profile

Anthropic is the AI research and safety company that develops [[entity-claude-d40]]. Canonical site: https://www.anthropic.com/.

## Role in This Source

- Developer of the **Skills / Capabilities** feature that the video is built around.
- Provides the internal documentation that Claude itself consults when building a new skill — see step 2 of [[framework-skill-creation]].
- Subject of speculation in [[question-anthropic-response-to-export]]: will Anthropic eventually restrict the export of skill files to protect ecosystem boundaries?

## Strategic Posture (Implied)

Anthropic shipped Skills using open Markdown formats — a choice that prioritizes user ergonomics inside Claude but, as a side effect, makes skills portable to [[entity-chatgpt-d40]] and [[entity-gemini-d40]] (see [[contrarian-ecosystem-lock-in]]).
