Scaffolding a new agent skill requires creating a SKILL.md entry point with valid YAML frontmatter for discovery metadata, followed by a markdown instruction body defining when to use the skill and its workflow structure.
A SKILL.md file serves as the standardized entry point for discoverable agent skills, using YAML frontmatter to expose required discovery metadata and a markdown body to define operational instructions and workflow steps.
Structure operational guidance by defining clear when-to-use conditions and a step-by-step workflow outline that covers inspection, execution, validation, and returning output to ensure deterministic agent processing.
No dependencies or external components are required to create a skill template, as it relies solely on a self-contained markdown structure with YAML frontmatter and instructional text for repository scaffolding.
The best way to turn a draft idea into a usable skill is replacing the template frontmatter name and description, then rewriting the workflow sections to match your data source, expected inputs, and exact agent workflow.
