## Core skills

- Hand the owner's AI the calculator instead of a guessed value.

Todd keeps a sourced airline transfer matrix and a cents-per-point calculator.

## Example: MCAFax

- Publishes the partial airline transfer matrix, Chase and Capital One only.
- Leaves American Express partner ratios blank until an official US page states them.
- Points the owner's AI at the transfer-matrix skill, which runs the calculator.
