What naming convention should I use for skills?

Use the gerund form (verb + -ing), such as 'analyzing-data' or 'managing-logs', using only lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens.

What is the recommended file structure for a skill?

A standard skill includes a required SKILL.md file for the overview, and optional directories for references, scripts, and assets.

How do I ensure my skill doesn't use too much context?

Follow the core principle of conciseness by keeping SKILL.md under 500 lines and using progressive disclosure to load deeper references only when needed.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Claude Code Skill is a specialized capability that enhances Claude's behavior during specific tasks by providing domain-specific guidance, tools, and implementation patterns.

Where should I store my custom Claude Code Skills?

Skills can be stored globally in ~/.claude/skills/, locally within a project at .claude/skills/, or bundled as part of a plugin.

개발자 도구

Standardizes the creation, optimization, and management of custom Claude Code Skills using best-practice patterns and automated validation.

소개

This skill provides a comprehensive framework for building high-performance Claude Code skills, offering guidance on activation patterns, content structure, and development workflows. It streamlines the process of converting memory files into formal skills, debugging activation issues, and ensuring cross-model compatibility. By enforcing naming conventions and structural integrity through automated hooks, it helps developers create predictable, efficient, and domain-specific AI behaviors that minimize context window bloat while maximizing utility.
