How does this tool handle large SKILL.md files?

The refiner identifies files exceeding 500 lines and suggests moving detailed technical documentation to a separate 'references' directory to keep the primary context lean.

Can I approve changes before they are applied?

Yes, the refiner follows a multi-phase workflow where it presents a prioritized analysis and gathers user consent before implementing any refactoring or file changes.

Why should I avoid time estimates in skills?

Time estimates are strictly forbidden because LLMs cannot accurately track or predict real-world processing time, leading to hallucinations or inaccurate status updates.

Audits and optimizes Claude Code skills by identifying structural issues, removing anti-patterns, and implementing prioritized improvements.

The Claude Skill Refiner is a specialized agent capability designed to maintain high standards for Claude Code skills. It performs deep structural audits, identifying critical issues like forbidden time estimates, oversized documentation, and poor workflow logic. By categorizing improvements into prioritized tiers (MUST, SHOULD, NICE), it provides a systematic framework for refactoring agent behavior, ensuring that custom skills remain concise, effective, and easy for the LLM to trigger and execute correctly.
