 "title": "Use the remove-ai-marks skill in Cowork sessions",
 "page_title": "How to use the remove-ai-marks skill in Cowork sessions with Watermarks Remover",
 "summary": "Upload the packaged skill to claude.ai and point it at a reachable service.",
 "who": "A user of Cowork, claude.ai, or cloud sessions who needs to remove provenance marks from files during a session.",
 "problem": "Cowork sessions do not read skills from your local machine, so the skill must be uploaded to your account.",
 "outcome": "The packaged remove-ai-marks skill is available in your account and can call a service the session can reach.",
 "steps": [
  "From the repository checkout, run `python3 install_skill.py --skill remove-ai-marks --target cowork`.",
  "In the Claude Desktop app, open Customize → Skills → Add and upload dist/remove-ai-marks.zip.",
  "Start the service with `make serve` for local Cowork sessions, or make a remote service URL reachable from the session.",
  "Set WATERMARKS_SERVER_API_KEY on the service if it requires an API key, and set the matching key for the client.",
  "Start a session, invoke the skill on a test file, and confirm it returns findings from the service."
 ],
 "agent_prompt": "In a Cowork session with the uploaded remove-ai-marks skill, inspect <file path> through the watermarks-remover service at <service URL>. Report the provenance marks found and confirm the service responded to the health check before inspection.",

 "difficulty": "Advanced",
 "time": "45 minutes",
 "basis": "readme",
 "caveat": "Cloud sessions and routines run remotely, so the service must be reachable from there, and a local make serve will not be enough.",
