Operations, Business & AI Media skills
Two related toolkits: skills that run the business day-to-day (weekly briefings, meetings, tasks, file & invoice cleanup, client workspaces, brainstorming) and skills that generate AI media (images, video, audio research) — note the media ones lean on outside subscriptions or spend credits. Click any skill for its full guide with 20 Melinda Maria examples.
weekly-business-pulseWeekly Business PulseCowork & Chat
A Friday-afternoon chief-of-staff briefing that reads across your connected tools and hands you one short page on what actually happened this week and what needs attention next — so nothing important slips through.
e.g. "Run my weekly pulse across Gmail, Google Calendar and Slack — flag anything from #wholesale or our top NuORDER retailers where a buyer is waiting on a reply, and list what’s due before next Friday."
meeting-machineMeeting MachineCowork & Chat
Your end-to-end meeting assistant. Before a call it researches who’s coming and builds a tight agenda; after it turns your notes into action items, a decision log, and a ready-to-review follow-up email — so meetings actually lead to action.
e.g. "Prep me for Thursday’s #wholesale call with a Nordstrom buyer — pull our Gmail thread history and recent NuORDER order activity for them, set the objective around the fall reorder, and build a 30-minute agenda with talking points."
brief-to-tasksBrief to TasksCowork & Chat
Turns a messy brief, doc, or long message into a clean, structured list of actionable tasks — so a paragraph of ‘here’s what we need’ becomes an organized to-do list someone can actually run with. (This skill’s file wasn’t readable in this build, so this is a purpose-level description.)
e.g. "Turn this Lariat-collection launch brief into a task list grouped by team — #marketing, #ops, and #wholesale — with owners and rough due dates."
file-organizerFile OrganizerCowork & Chat
Your personal cleanup assistant for messy folders. It looks at what you’ve got, finds duplicates, proposes a sensible folder structure, and tidies things up — with your approval before anything moves or gets deleted.
e.g. "My Downloads folder is 400+ files of product photos, line sheets and random PDFs — sort them into Product Photos, Line Sheets, Invoices and To-Sort, and flag duplicate jewelry shots before deleting."
invoice-organizerInvoice OrganizerCowork & Chat
Turns a chaotic pile of invoices and receipts into a clean, tax-ready filing system. It reads each file, pulls out the key details, renames everything consistently, sorts it into folders, and builds a summary spreadsheet for the accountant.
e.g. "Read every receipt in my MM-expenses folder, rename them to our standard format, sort by category (Software, Shipping, Packaging, Travel), and build a CSV I can reconcile against QuickBooks."
pdf-processing-proPDF Processing ProCowork & Chat
A production-grade PDF toolkit for the heavy, repetitive document work — reading and filling forms, pulling tables and data out of PDFs, running OCR on scanned files, and batch-processing whole folders — with validation and error reporting so it’s reliable at volume.
e.g. "Pull the line-item tables out of these wholesale line-sheet PDFs and export them to one Excel file with SKU, description, wholesale price, and MSRP as columns."
client-context-systemClient Context SystemCowork & Chat
Sets up a dedicated workspace for each client or key partner so their preferences, history, decisions and templates never get lost or mixed up — perfect for the wholesale and partnerships side where every retailer is different.
e.g. "Set up a workspace for our Nordstrom wholesale account — pull our Gmail history and recent NuORDER orders, capture their buyer’s communication style and reorder cadence, and start a decision log."
brainstormingBrainstormingCowork & Chat
A structured idea-to-plan partner. Instead of one big answer, it asks you questions one at a time, explores a few approaches with trade-offs, then writes up the agreed design — so a fuzzy idea becomes a clear, validated plan before any work starts.
e.g. "Let’s brainstorm a loyalty / VIP program for repeat MM customers — walk me through options before we touch Shopify or Klaviyo."
gpt-image-2GPT Image 2 (image generation)Cowork & Chat
Generates and edits images with OpenAI’s GPT Image 2 — strong at text-in-image and following detailed prompts. Useful for concept art, mockups, and on-brand social/marketing visuals.
e.g. "Use GPT Image 2 to mock up an on-brand Instagram tile for the Lariat launch — lavender-to-plum gradient, a gold lariat necklace centered, and the quoted headline ‘Drop the Lariat’ in a clean serif."
nano-banana-2Nano Banana 2 (image generation)Cowork & Chat
Google’s fast ‘flash-tier’ text-to-image model, good for rapid drafts, batches of social thumbnails, and predictable in-image typography. Built for speed and quick iteration over maximum photorealism.
e.g. "Use Nano Banana 2 to crank out a 4-up batch of 9:16 social thumbnails for our charms line at draft resolution, then re-render my favorite at 2K for the Sprout Social queue."
kling-3-0Kling 3.0 (video generation)Cowork & Chat
Generates short cinematic video from a text prompt or a still image, with synchronized audio and consistent characters across shots. Useful for social video, product motion, and ad concepts.
e.g. "Use Kling 3.0 Standard to draft a 5-second 9:16 clip of a gold lariat necklace catching the light on marble, then re-run the winner on Pro for the #marketing reel."
notebooklmNotebookLMCowork & Chat
Connects to Google’s NotebookLM so you can ask questions of your own document notebooks, keep their sources in sync, and pull structured answers back out — handy for querying a body of brand or research docs grounded in your own material.
e.g. "Sync our brand-guidelines and product-copy docs into a NotebookLM notebook, then ask it to list every approved way we describe the ‘everyday luxury’ positioning."
soultraceSoulTrace (personality test)Cowork & Chat
A fun, optional personality quiz that asks 24 questions and gives you a color-based archetype profile. This is a novelty / personal skill — a nice team icebreaker, not a core Melinda Maria business tool.
e.g. "Run the SoulTrace personality test with me and explain my archetype and color breakdown at the end."
family-history-planningFamily History Planning (genealogy)Cowork & Chat
A genealogy research-planning assistant that helps you scope and organize family-history projects, build proper source citations, and weigh conflicting records. This is a personal-interest skill — included for completeness, not a Melinda Maria business tool.
e.g. "Help me plan research on my great-grandmother who immigrated in the early 1900s — ask what I know, then build a prioritized source plan."
