What is the best way to organize scripts and references when building AI skills?

The best way to organize scripts and references is to separate dynamic executable logic into scripts and static context or API reference materials into references, maintaining a concise core structure for your AI agent.

How do I create a modular AI skill to interact with a specific API?

To create a modular AI skill for a specific API, follow an iterative workflow from understanding the core task to structuring resources, using provided guidelines to map API reference materials into appropriate skill components.

Can I use this framework to build AI skills without prior experience?
