SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This guide helps authors design and implement Claude Code skills and slash commands following official specifications, enforcing frontmatter discipline, progressive disclosure, and structured lifecycles.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Structured authoring: frontmatter, router vs single-file layouts, and YAML/markup best practices for discoverability.
  • Progressive disclosure: organize content into SKILL.md, workflows/, references/, and scripts/ as needed to keep SKILL.md concise.
  • Lifecycle templates: ready-to-use workflow templates for building, debugging, testing, and shipping skills; includes reference organization and validation patterns.

Quick Start

Write a new skill by defining a minimal SKILL.md with name and description, then add a single workflow that demonstrates the basic flow.
