FAQPage Schema
How do I formalize AI capabilities into reusable Skills?

Packaging documented workflows into reusable Skills involves generating standardized `SKILL.md` and `criteria.md` files. This formalizes AI-generated solutions into discrete, callable units that adhere to specific structural guidelines for discoverability.

What is the best way to package a documented workflow into a callable unit?

Packaging documented workflows into reusable Skills involves generating standardized `SKILL.md` and `criteria.md` files. This formalizes AI-generated solutions into discrete, callable units that adhere to specific structural guidelines for discoverability.

How do I generate SKILL.md and criteria.md files for AI development?

You generate `SKILL.md` and `criteria.md` files by providing goal and research documents to the formalization process. This ensures the new AI development output adheres to defined structural and content specifications for execution.

Do I need specific research documents to create a new Skill?

Yes, creating a new Skill requires goal and research documents to guide the generation of `SKILL.md` and `criteria.md` files. These inputs ensure the formalized solution meets the required structural and content specifications.

When do I need to formalize an AI-generated solution into a Skill?

You need to formalize an AI-generated solution into a Skill when you have a researched complex topic or documented process that you want to package as a discrete, callable unit for future reuse.

Does skill creation work without external dependencies?

Skill creation works without external dependencies, requiring only goal and research documents as input. It generates the necessary `SKILL.md` and `criteria.md` files internally to structure your AI capabilities.
