FAQPage Schema

How do I structure a Claude Code plugin skill with proper frontmatter and triggers?▼

What is progressive disclosure in skill authoring and when should I use it?▼

Progressive disclosure in skill authoring is the practice of splitting instructions between a focused SKILL.md and supporting reference files, used when you need to keep core guidance lean while providing deeper details on demand.

How do I create a new Claude Code skill from scattered notes?▼

What belongs in SKILL.md versus references when developing Claude Code skills?▼

SKILL.md should contain frontmatter metadata and lean imperative instructional body text, while references should hold the deeper details and reusable resources that support progressive disclosure across the plugin workflow.

Can I use skill development techniques to revise frontmatter for existing plugin workflows?▼

Yes, you can revise skill frontmatter for existing plugin workflows by applying clear SKILL.md metadata and documenting trigger phrases to ensure the correct skill activates at the appropriate time.
