What problem does it solve?
This Skill clears the confusion around why custom Skill definitions fail to activate by walking authors through every structural, naming, and discovery requirement so metadata is precise and actionable.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Scope planning: Ask clarifying questions, keep the Skill focused on a single capability, and decide whether it belongs in a personal or project folder.
- Structure and frontmatter: Create the directory and files, enforce lowercase hyphenated names, and write rich descriptions mentioning triggers, file types, and contexts.
- Validation workflow: Provide checklists for YAML syntax, instructions quality, examples, optional references, and testing steps to make sure the Skill is production-ready before activation.
- Use case: When a teammate needs a new automation, use this Skill to translate their request into a SKILL.md entry with supporting files, scripts, and documentation.
