The router pattern is a structural approach for Claude Code skills that enforces organized routing logic within your skill files. It is required by this skill's guidance to ensure your custom slash commands and skills maintain a compliant, maintainable architecture.

Authoring Claude Code skills requires adding YAML frontmatter with mandatory name and description fields at the top of your skill files. This skill enforces that requirement and provides best-practices guidance for proper frontmatter formatting.

Yes, progressive disclosure via references and workflows is fully supported when building Claude Code skills. This skill provides discovery and best-practices guidance to help you implement progressive disclosure effectively within the official specification.

Auditing and refactoring existing Claude Code skills involves checking for a router-based structure, validating YAML frontmatter, and ensuring progressive disclosure compliance. This skill applies directly to refining existing skills and onboarding new skill authors.

Custom Claude Code slash commands often fail when missing required YAML frontmatter fields like name and description, or lacking a router-based structure. This skill helps identify specification violations and provides corrective best-practices guidance.
