When should I update an existing Codex skill instead of creating a new one?

Update an existing Codex skill instead of creating a new one when extending current workflows or domain knowledge. The framework provides specific guidance on when to modify existing SKILL.md files versus designing entirely new self-contained units.

Do I need to run validation tools after updating my SKILL.md file?

Yes, you need to run the provided validation tool after updating your SKILL.md file. The automated validation workflow verifies your skill's structure and frontmatter, ensuring it meets the required standardized process before deployment.

Can I include scripts and references when building a Codex skill?
