What are the required fields for a Claude Skill?

Every SKILL.md must contain a YAML frontmatter block with exactly two fields: 'name' (max 64 characters) and 'description' (max 1024 characters).

Why does this skill use progressive disclosure?

Progressive disclosure allows Claude to scale to 100+ skills by only loading metadata initially. Full instructions are only pulled into the context when a specific skill is triggered, preventing context window saturation.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Claude Code Skill is a specialized capability that provides domain-specific guidance and patterns, allowing Claude to autonomously discover and use custom workflows across different environments.

Where are personal Claude skills stored?

Personal skills are stored in ~/.claude/skills/[skill-name]/ and are available across all your local projects, whereas project-level skills are stored in the project root.

Automates the creation of production-ready Claude Code Skills using standardized YAML frontmatter and progressive disclosure patterns.

Skill Architect is a specialized tool designed to streamline the development of Claude Code Skills by enforcing the official specification and best practices. It guides developers through the process of creating necessary YAML frontmatter, organizing multi-level directory structures, and implementing a three-level progressive disclosure architecture. This ensures that custom skills are not only discoverable by Claude across all surfaces but also optimized for context efficiency, allowing for large skill libraries without performance degradation.
