SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It solves the problem of creating new Claude Code skills that follow consistent authoring conventions, structured frontmatter, and predictable operational instructions.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Skill scaffolding: Creates a complete skill directory with required SKILL.md plus optional REFERENCE.md, EXAMPLES.md, and scripts when needed.
  • Guideline-driven drafting: Fetches the latest skill authoring guidelines from a dedicated claude-code-guide sub-agent and validates the draft against them.
  • Quality controls: Audits the new skill by running /mp-skill-audit and presents guideline-driven changes for user review.
  • Use case: When you need to write a new slash-command skill for a team workflow, the skill produces a ready-to-use implementation structure in the expected format.

Quick Start

Use the mp-skill-create skill to create a new skill by telling Claude Code to: create skill “<skill name or description>”.

Frequently Asked Questions about mp-skill-create

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new Claude Code skill with the correct YAML frontmatter and directory structure?▼

To create a Claude Code skill, use mp-skill-create to scaffold a complete directory with structured SKILL.md, guideline-aligned YAML frontmatter, tool allowlists, and optional REFERENCE.md or EXAMPLES.md files.

What's the best way to scaffold a slash-command skill for a team workflow?▼

Scaffolding a slash-command skill is best handled by mp-skill-create, which drafts a predictable multi-step authoring workflow, validates file structure and size compliance, and produces a ready-to-use implementation format.

How does guideline-driven skill creation validate conventions before publishing?▼

Guideline-driven skill creation validates conventions by fetching the latest authoring guidelines from a dedicated claude-code-guide sub-agent, checking the draft against them, and auditing the result via /mp-skill-audit for user review.

Does Claude Code skill authoring require a tool allowlist in the frontmatter?▼

Claude Code skill authoring requires a tool allowlist in the frontmatter to enforce deterministic drafting and predictable operational instructions, and mp-skill-create generates this allowlist automatically during scaffolding.

Can I add supporting reference materials and scripts when generating a new skill?▼

You can add supporting materials when generating a skill through directory scaffolding, which optionally creates REFERENCE.md, EXAMPLES.md, and scripts alongside the required SKILL.md when the workflow demands them.

Why does my Claude Code skill fail convention validation during authoring?▼

Convention validation fails during skill authoring when the draft lacks structured YAML frontmatter, misses a tool allowlist, exceeds size compliance limits, or breaks expected directory file structure checked against fetched guidelines.
