What is all of Claude, and are you learning the right thing? Skills, MCP, Claude Code, agents, certifications: everyone shouts a different word. Here is the whole map of Claude in 6 levels, with real examples from my own daily use, and where Anthropic's 4 certifications fit. Honest note: Anthropic has no official list of "levels". This is our map, built from what Claude can actually do and from what the certifications test. Four "Your turn" questions with a 5-second timer. Keep score and tell me your level in the comments! The 6 levels 1. Chat: prompts, files, Projects, Artifacts 2. Connected: connectors (Drive, mail, calendar), ready-made skills (Word, Excel, PowerPoint) 3.
