FAQPage Schema
How do I discover and activate the right skills for a specific workflow?▼

To discover and activate skills for a workflow, this meta-skill maps your task description to a relevant skills library, then composes and activates them in a recommended execution order.

What is the best way to compose and chain multiple skills before execution?▼

Composing and chaining skills requires mapping task requirements to a sequential execution chain. This approach ensures proper activation order, sequential use, and traceability before final execution.

Do I need specific frontmatter or directory structures to use skill discovery?▼

Yes, skill discovery and compliance validation require a SKILL.md file with specific name and description frontmatter, while also detecting optional resources directories to extend behavior.

How does structured metadata improve skill retrieval and activation?▼

Structured metadata improves skill retrieval by emitting standardized discovery information. This enforces frontmatter requirements and allows systems to automatically map tasks to applicable skills.

Can I use skill composition across different task types and workflows?▼

Yes, you can use skill composition across different task types and workflows. The guidance mechanism applies universally to determine whether to activate, compose, or chain skills before execution.

Why does my skill activation fail the compliance check?▼

Skill activation fails compliance checks when the SKILL.md file is missing or lacks required frontmatter fields. Validating the name and description structure resolves these discovery errors.
