Skill Progression

Zero to Architect

The roadmap from writing your first prompt to orchestrating multi-agent systems.

01

Level 1: The Prompter (Beginner)

Your goal is to move from a raw idea to a deployed app without writing manual code.

  • Tools: Bolt.new, Replit Agent.
  • Skill: Decomposing vague ideas ('I want a website') into specific requirements ('I need a landing page with a hero section').
  • Project: Personal portfolio, To-Do list.

02

Level 2: The Editor (Intermediate)

You can read code to 'trust but verify'. You use multiple tools together.

  • Tools: v0 (for Design) + Cursor (for Logic).
  • Skill: Tool Chaining—exporting UI code from v0 and pasting it into Cursor to add backend logic.
  • Concept: Version Control. Using Git to 'save' before letting AI make big changes.

03

Level 3: The Architect (Advanced)

You orchestrate complex systems and optimize for cost and security.

  • Skill: Advanced Context Engineering (managing the AI's memory).
  • Focus: Security governance and economic optimization of tokens.
