FAQPage Schema
How do I create a reusable SKILL.md file for future agents?▼

To create a reusable SKILL.md file, you provide a YAML frontmatter containing at least a name and description, followed by a thorough body. This standardizes how skills are defined and discovered by agents.

What is YAML frontmatter and why is it needed for skill discovery?▼

YAML frontmatter is a metadata block at the top of a SKILL.md file that must contain at least a name and description. It enables agents to discover, validate, and load skills for reuse.

Can I use optional triggers and components when authoring a SKILL.md file?▼

Yes, you can use optional triggers in the frontmatter and record optional components like scripts, references, and assets. Components are detected based on their directory presence during skill authoring.

Does skill authoring support both built-in and project-specific locations?▼

Skill authoring supports both built-in and project-specific skill locations. This allows you to standardize workflows globally or keep generated SKILL.md files scoped to a single project.

What is the best way to standardize how agents discover and load skills?▼

The best way to standardize skill discovery is generating correctly structured SKILL.md files with validated YAML frontmatter. This ensures future agents can consistently discover, load, and reuse learned workflows.
