FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new skill in Claude Code?

Create a skill by defining a SKILL.md file with metadata, specifying trigger keywords, and declaring allowed-tools. Claude Code reads this structure to register your custom skill for use in CLI commands and workflows.

What are Claude Code hooks and how do I implement them?

Hooks are automated triggers that run custom logic at specific points in your Claude Code workflow. Implement them by configuring hook definitions in your skill or project config to validate code, format output, or execute pre/post-task actions.

What's the difference between skills, commands, and hooks in Claude Code?

Skills are reusable modules with defined functionality; commands are CLI invocations that trigger skills; hooks are event-driven automations that execute within workflows. Each serves a distinct role in structuring and automating your development environment.

Do I need prior CLI experience to use Claude Code automation features?

No prior CLI expertise is required. Claude Code provides template structures and configuration examples for skills, commands, and hooks, allowing you to build automation through guided file setup and clear keyword definitions.
