SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Creating a new skill from scratch often leads to inconsistent structure, missing frontmatter, or bloated instructions. This template gives authors a standardized starting point with the required SKILL.md frontmatter and recommended section layout. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Standardized scaffolding: Ships a complete SKILL.md skeleton with name, description, and structured sections for ownership, boundaries, decision rules, and workflow. - Authoring guidance: Embeds best practices such as keeping the main file concise, moving deep material to references, and separating trigger evals from behavior evals. - Use Case: A developer wants to add a new skill to the .claude/skills directory. They copy this template folder, rename it, remove the disable-model-invocation flag, and fill in each section following the inline guidance. ## Quick Start Copy the _template folder to .claude/skills/<skill-name> and fill in each section of SKILL.md for your new skill.

Frequently Asked Questions about example-skill

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new Claude skill from a template?▼

Copy the _template folder into .claude/skills/<skill-name>, then edit SKILL.md with your skill's name, description, and instructions. Remove the disable-model-invocation flag unless the skill should stay model-disabled.

What should a SKILL.md file contain?▼

A SKILL.md needs YAML frontmatter with at least a name and description, followed by Markdown instructions. This template adds recommended sections: ownership, source priority, when to use, boundaries, decision rules, workflow, references, and evaluation.

When should I move content to a references folder?▼

Move deep or volatile material, such as detailed API specifics, into references/ files and load them only when needed. Keep the main SKILL.md concise so activation stays lightweight.

What does disable-model-invocation do in a skill?▼

The disable-model-invocation flag prevents the model from automatically invoking the skill. The template includes it by default so copies are not triggered accidentally before authors finish configuring them.
