Can I use this skill as a template for my own skills?

Yes, it provides a perfect example of how to structure your SKILL.md and catalog entries for staged releases.

What is the difference between the Stable and Preview catalogs?

The Stable catalog is for production-ready, fully tested skills, while the Preview catalog is for experimental features and beta testing of new skills.

Why is this skill only visible in the preview catalog?

It is designed as a control variable to prove that the visibility configuration works; if it appeared in stable, it would indicate a configuration error.

What are the requirements for a skill to move from Preview to Stable?

Promotion requires completed documentation, community feedback resolution, a stable API, and final maintainer approval.

How do I switch between different Claude Code catalogs?

You can switch by adding specific marketplace references using the /plugin marketplace add command pointing to different JSON metadata files.
