To bootstrap a new Claude Skill, run the initialization script to generate a reusable SKILL.md template alongside example scripts, references, and assets directories. This scaffolding enforces required frontmatter fields and provides a standardized structure for skill creation workflows across domains.

The required frontmatter for a SKILL.md file includes mandatory name and description fields. The validation script checks for these fields to ensure skills meet quality gates, while optional resources like scripts, references, and assets can be added to support progressive disclosure.

To validate and package a skill, run the quick_validate script to check frontmatter and structure, then execute the packaging script to bundle the validated directory into a .skill file. This ensures the skill meets governance guidelines before distribution.

Yes, the skill scaffolding automatically generates example scripts, references, and assets directories. These resources demonstrate proper structure and adoption patterns, ensuring consistent naming and packaging across domain skills created by product teams.

Yes, pyyaml is a required dependency for the skill creation workflow. It is needed to parse and validate the frontmatter fields in the SKILL.md template during the initialization and validation processes.
