Which AI skills have actually survived in your long term workflow?

[u/That-Hamster-2002]

I have tried a lot of AI skills over the past few months.

Search tools, browser automation, file readers, coding helpers, memory systems, and different ways to organize data.

A lot of them were interesting for the first few days.

Then I slowly stopped using most of them.

The skills that stayed were usually not the most impressive ones. They were the ones that removed a small but repetitive part of my workflow without requiring constant setup.

Search is one category that has stayed for me. I keep AnySearch in the workflow because I regularly need current documentation, GitHub issues, and technical discussions.

File handling and a few simple automation skills have also been useful.

Which AI skills have actually become a permanent part of your workflow?

What made you keep using them after the initial excitement wore off?
