How is the skill context managed efficiently?

Skills use progressive disclosure: metadata is always in context, the SKILL.md body loads when triggered, and bundled resources are only pulled in as Claude needs them.

How do I start creating a new skill?

You can use the provided init_skill.py script which automatically generates a template directory including the required SKILL.md file and resource folders.

What are bundled resources in a skill?

Bundled resources are optional folders (scripts, references, assets) that contain executable code, documentation for context, or files for final output like templates and icons.

How do I share my finished skill?

Run the package_skill.py script to validate your directory structure and metadata; if successful, it generates a distributable zip file for sharing.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Claude Code Skill is a modular package that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, and tool integrations, transforming it into a domain-specific agent.

Guides the creation, development, and packaging of custom Claude Code skills to extend agent capabilities with specialized workflows and domain knowledge.

Acerca de

The Skill Creator is a meta-utility designed to streamline the development of modular extensions for Claude Code. It provides a standardized six-step framework that takes users from initial concept through resource planning, initialization, and final packaging. By utilizing progressive disclosure principles and supporting bundled resources like executable scripts, reference documentation, and static assets, this tool ensures that custom skills are context-efficient, valid, and highly specialized for complex domain-specific tasks.
