These "people" fundamentally misunderstand how tech illiterate the average person is and don't care about AI outside it appearing in their search results as an occasional convenience. My Mom (in her 50s) heard about ChatGPT for the first time this month and doesn't care about it, nor eager to figure it out.
Small business owners are not going to put their life's work in the hands of AI, they don't even trust the most basic versions of it and they're certainly not going to use "agents", and the ones that do trust it are naively going to overly trust it because the faulty marketing from these companies and very bad things are going to happen.
Inspiring quote there.
A couple more thoughts here - the hard part is not just the data side of it, it's replaying/unplaying actions. Many actions are non-reversible. Code is clean in the same way that google docs is clean. But for many business processes, some actions just can't be unwound once started. If claude initiates a wire that it shouldn't, no amount of git technology will undo that wire.
A skill cannot provide MCPs and can't provide custom template prompts, each skill is it's own slash command.
A plugin you can define N number of custom slash commands, and you can define MCPs as well as skills. So it bundles like all the things together.
By installing a plugin, you are basically installing a bunch of MCPs, skills and custom slash command prompts.
