skill-creator

To create a Claude Code Skill, run the init-skill.ts script to scaffold the directory, then customize SKILL.md with standardized frontmatter and organize resources into scripts/, references/, and assets/ folders before packaging.

Progressive disclosure is a prompting pattern that structures Skill content to reveal information sequentially. It organizes scripts, references, and assets to prevent context overload and optimize Claude's reasoning during task execution.

Package and validate a .skill file by running the provided packaging and validation scripts after finalizing your SKILL.md and resource folders. This process verifies the standardized frontmatter and bundles the components into a distributable archive.

Yes, the skill-creation workflow requires the YAML dependency to parse and enforce standardized frontmatter fields. This ensures reliable metadata discovery and correct structural validation during the scaffolding process.

Yes, you can use XML prompting patterns to structure your Skill body content. This approach helps define clear boundaries for instructions and data, complementing the progressive disclosure patterns used for resource organization.

The best way to organize Skill resources is to place executable scripts in scripts/, supporting documents in references/, and static media in assets/. This structure enforces progressive disclosure and ensures clean packaging.
