Creating a Claude Skill involves generating a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter, organizing scripts and assets in resource directories, and validating required fields. Use the init_skill.py script to scaffold a new skill, then customize the template with your automation logic, documentation, and bundled resources.

YAML frontmatter requires hyphen-case naming, restricted angle brackets in descriptions, and metadata fields defining the skill's purpose. Documentation structure prescribes progressive disclosure patterns and clear resource organization for scripts, references, and assets to ensure consistency and usability.

Yes, the Skill framework lets you bundle existing scripts, references, and assets into a structured package. Define the skill's metadata and documentation in SKILL.md, organize resources in prescribed directories, and validate naming and field requirements before packaging for distribution.

Skill validation enforces required YAML frontmatter fields, hyphen-case naming conventions, and restrictions on angle brackets in descriptions. These constraints ensure compatibility, consistency, and correct parsing across the Skill ecosystem.

Organize bundled resources into dedicated directories—scripts/, references/, and assets/—following the prescribed structure. This layout supports progressive disclosure and enables users to quickly locate automation tooling, documentation, and supporting files.
