skill-creator

To create modular Claude skills, run an init script to generate a scaffold with SKILL.md, scripts, references, and assets. This enforces YAML frontmatter with name and description fields for valid packaging.

The best way to package a Claude skill is using dedicated validate and package scripts. These check YAML frontmatter and directory structure, then compress the skill into a distributable zip file for sharing or deployment.

No dependencies are required to initialize a reusable skill template. The skill-creator provides a standalone init script that generates the complete scaffold, allowing authors to focus on domain logic instead of boilerplate setup.

Yes, you can use skill templates for both authoring and engineering domains. The init script supports domain-aware placement, allowing contributors to initialize skills with appropriate scaffolding for specific domain logic and workflows.

A generated Claude skill scaffold includes SKILL.md with required YAML frontmatter, example scripts, references, and asset directories. These components standardize new skill creation and reduce repetitive, error-prone setup for authors.

Skill validation fails when YAML frontmatter is missing required name and description fields, or when the directory structure does not match expected packaging standards. Run the validate script to identify and correct structural errors before packaging.
