Frequently Asked Questions about skill-creator

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create an AI skill from scratch?

To create an AI skill, follow a structured development process using the skill anatomy: define the `SKILL.md` frontmatter and body, and bundle resources like scripts, references, and assets to ensure modularity and effectiveness.

What is progressive disclosure in AI skill development?

Progressive disclosure in AI skill development is a design principle that structures information so the AI agent receives necessary details at the right time, keeping the skill concise and reducing cognitive load.

How should I structure documentation for an AI agent extension?

You should structure AI agent extension documentation using `SKILL.md` for the core logic and anatomy, and provide a separate `README.user.md` to package and distribute the skill for external users.

What are the best practices for writing SKILL.md files?

Best practices for writing `SKILL.md` files include maintaining conciseness, managing degrees of freedom, applying progressive disclosure, and ensuring modular design for the AI extension.

When do I need to use references and scripts in skill development?

You need to use bundled resources like scripts and references in skill development when your AI skill requires external logic execution or detailed supporting documentation beyond the core `SKILL.md` structure.

Does building a modular AI skill require specific dependencies?

Building a modular AI skill does not require external dependencies; it relies on a structured internal design featuring `SKILL.md`, scripts, references, and assets to achieve effective AI agent extensions.
