Process Documentation & Skill Writing FAQs

Question 1

What is Claude Search Optimization (CSO)?

Accepted Answer

CSO is the practice of structuring skill descriptions and keywords so that Claude can accurately identify and load the most relevant skill for a specific task.

Question 2

Why apply TDD to documentation?

Accepted Answer

Using Test-Driven Development ensures the documentation actually solves a problem. You watch an agent fail without the skill (Red), write the skill (Green), and then refine it (Refactor) to close loopholes.

Question 3

Why shouldn't I summarize the workflow in the description field?

Accepted Answer

If the description summarizes the workflow, Claude may follow that brief summary and skip the detailed instructions in the main skill body, leading to missed steps or errors.

Question 4

When should I create a new skill vs. project documentation?

Accepted Answer

Create a skill for broad, reusable techniques or patterns that aren't project-specific. Use project-specific files like CLAUDE.md for local conventions and mechanical constraints.

Question 5

What is a Claude Code Skill?

Accepted Answer

A skill is a specialized reference guide for proven techniques, patterns, or tools that helps Claude instances apply effective approaches consistently across projects.
