This Skill provides a guided template and process to create new Agent Skills by generating compliant SKILL.md entries that are orthogonal, well-structured, and aligned with Claude's best practices.
Create a new skill named 'my-skill' by starting from the template in this repository, filling in frontmatter, activation criteria, and a basic slash command. Add any required supporting files under scripts/ or references/ as needed.
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To create an agent skill, generate a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter containing name and description, then define an activation pattern and a slash command. This standardizes skill creation and ensures compliant, discoverable entries.
A SKILL.md template requires YAML frontmatter with name and description fields, a concise core purpose section, activation triggers, and a slash command pattern. Optional supporting directories like scripts/ or references/ can be added as needed.
Standardize skill creation by enforcing a guided template that produces compliant SKILL.md entries with consistent frontmatter, activation phrases, and slash commands. This ensures orthogonal skills align with best practices and enable repeatable discovery workflows.
Yes, you can add supporting files when authoring a new skill by creating directories such as scripts/ or references/ alongside your SKILL.md file. These optional directories help organize tooling constraints and reference materials for execution workflows.
Skill authoring does not strictly require tooling constraints in the YAML frontmatter, but they are supported as optional fields. The mandatory frontmatter fields are name and description, ensuring consistent skill discovery and execution.
An agent skill needs an activation pattern and slash command to enable consistent discovery and execution workflows. Mapping activation phrases validates the skill structure, allowing rapid triggering and repeatable performance across a team's orthogonal skill catalog.
