FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new skill with a standard template structure?

Template-skill provides a pre-structured SKILL.md boilerplate with YAML frontmatter and instruction placeholders, letting you establish a new skill's foundation immediately without building the format from scratch.

A valid skill requires YAML frontmatter and properly structured instruction content. Template-skill ensures these basic requirements are met from the start, eliminating format errors during initial setup.

Can I use this template to quickly prototype a new skill idea?

Yes. Template-skill accelerates rapid prototyping by providing the foundational SKILL.md structure, letting you focus on defining skill logic rather than building the boilerplate framework.

Use template-skill to generate a new SKILL.md file with complete YAML frontmatter and instruction sections, establishing your skill's directory structure and format compliance in one step.

Template-skill enforces strict requirements: three-sentence request format, English-only content, and valid JSON output with 'request', 'description', 'is_toxic', and 'toxic_reason' keys for consistent skill cataloging.

When should I use a template approach instead of building a skill manually?

Use template-skill during skill onboarding, when maintaining consistent descriptions across multiple skills, or when you need rapid setup to test a new skill concept before refinement.
