FAQPage Schema
How do I create a Claude Code skill with proper frontmatter?▼

Creating Claude Code skills requires defining frontmatter metadata that includes skill name, description, trigger keywords, and required tools. This Skill guides you through interactive prompts to structure single or multi-file skills with `SKILL.md`, `REFERENCE.md`, and `EXAMPLES.md` files, ensuring your skill is discoverable and activates correctly.

What makes a skill discoverable and how do trigger keywords work?▼

Trigger keywords determine when your skill activates in Claude Code. This Skill helps you select precise keywords that match user queries—for example, 'create React component' activates a React-focused skill. Well-chosen keywords improve discoverability by connecting your skill to the tasks users actually search for.

Can I build multi-file skill structures, and what files do I need?▼

Yes, multi-file skills organize knowledge across `SKILL.md` for core logic, `REFERENCE.md` for technical details, and `EXAMPLES.md` for use cases. This Skill scaffolds the complete structure and validates frontmatter, helping you create maintainable, well-documented skills that users can understand at a glance.

How do I debug a skill that isn't activating or working correctly?▼

Skill activation depends on correct frontmatter configuration, model selection, and trigger keyword alignment. This Skill includes troubleshooting guidance to validate your frontmatter, verify tool dependencies, and adjust keywords so your skill activates reliably when users need it.

What's the difference between single-file and multi-file skill structures?▼

Single-file skills consolidate logic in one `SKILL.md`; multi-file skills distribute content across `SKILL.md`, `REFERENCE.md`, and `EXAMPLES.md` for better organization. This Skill helps you choose the right structure based on complexity and guides scaffolding for either approach.

Do I need specific tools or dependencies to create a working skill?▼

Skills don't require external dependencies to function. This Skill validates frontmatter and generates templates interactively, so you only need Claude Code and your knowledge of the task you're automating. The Skill handles best practices for model selection and configuration automatically.
