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

FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a new Claude skill directory with the correct folders?▼

Scaffold a new Claude skill directory by running the initialization workflow, which automatically generates standard folders like scripts/, references/, and assets/ alongside a SKILL.md template.

What is the standard file structure required for packaging Claude skills?▼

The standard file structure for Claude skills requires a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter, alongside scripts/, references/, and assets/ directories to ensure reliable and auditable packaging.

How do I validate YAML frontmatter before packaging a skill for distribution?▼

Validate YAML frontmatter by running the skill validation checks, which enforce mandatory fields and proper kebab-case naming conventions before allowing packaging for distribution.

Do I need to install YAML dependencies to create and package skills?▼

Yes, you need the YAML dependency installed in your environment to enable skill creation, as the tool relies on it to parse and validate the mandatory frontmatter in SKILL.md files.

What is the best way to automate the skill creation workflow from initialization to packaging?▼

Automate the skill creation workflow by using the Skill Creator, which guides you sequentially through initialization, validation, and packaging steps to generate a distributable ZIP archive.

Why does my skill validation fail during the packaging process?▼

Skill validation fails during packaging if the SKILL.md file lacks mandatory YAML frontmatter, uses incorrect naming conventions, or violates the enforced kebab-case directory structure standards.
