FAQPage Schema
How do I create and package a modular Claude skill with valid SKILL.md frontmatter?▼

To create a modular Claude skill, initialize a new project using scripts/init_skill.py, edit the SKILL.md file to enforce required name and description frontmatter, add optional resources like scripts or assets, then package the folder with scripts/package_skill.py for distribution.

What is the required structure and anatomy of a SKILL.md file for Claude?▼

A SKILL.md file requires a frontmatter section containing the skill name and description, followed by a body with guidance. You can also bundle optional resources into scripts/, references/, and assets/ subdirectories to keep context lean.

What's the best way to organize resources when building Claude skills to keep context lean?▼

Organizing resources into modular subdirectories like scripts/, references/, and assets/ alongside your SKILL.md file applies progressive disclosure patterns to keep context lean. This structure ensures consistent, distributable skill units across domains.

Can I update an existing Claude skill or only use this process to create new ones?▼

You can update existing Claude skills by editing the SKILL.md body guidance and adding optional bundled resources. The packaging process validates the required frontmatter and resource structure for both new creations and updates to existing modular skills.

Do I need any dependencies to build and package Claude skills?▼

No external dependencies are required to build and package Claude skills. You can initialize, edit, and package modular skills directly using the provided scripts, ensuring valid frontmatter and consistent resource structure for distribution.
