FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new skill from a template with proper frontmatter?

To create a skill from a template, provide a target name and brief description to trigger a guided workflow that captures intent, classifies the type, and drafts a SKILL.md with correct frontmatter. This generates a complete folder scaffold and supporting files.

What is the best way to structure documentation for a new skill?

The best way to structure documentation is using a template-driven scaffold that enforces frontmatter schema and writing guidelines. This maintains quality and discoverability while producing a reusable skeleton for references, templates, and scripts.

Can I generate a complete SKILL.md file and folder scaffold automatically?

Yes, you can generate a complete SKILL.md and folder scaffold automatically by providing a target skill name and a brief description. The workflow interviews for requirements and writes the file to support future extensions.

Do I need to manually write frontmatter when generating skill documentation?

No, you do not need to manually write frontmatter. The workflow enforces the frontmatter schema automatically during the generation process, ensuring the SKILL.md maintains consistent structure and quality.

How does the guided workflow classify skill type and capture intent?

The guided workflow classifies skill type and captures intent through an interactive interview process. It asks targeted questions to gather requirements, then uses the responses to draft the SKILL.md and generate the appropriate folder structure.

What limitations exist when extending the generated skill skeleton with scripts?

The generated skill skeleton supports optional references, templates, and scripts as needed for future extensions. However, the initial output is a template-driven scaffold designed to be extended manually after the core SKILL.md is created.
