What is Claude Search Optimization (CSO)?

CSO involves writing descriptions and metadata in a way that helps Claude accurately identify and load relevant skills during a conversation.

Why use TDD for writing skills?

TDD ensures the skill is necessary and effective by watching the agent fail a scenario without the skill (Red) and pass once the skill is documented (Green).

Where are personal Claude skills stored?

Personal skills are typically located in the ~/.claude/skills directory for Claude Code or ~/.codex/skills for Codex.

How does this skill help with token efficiency?

It provides strategies like moving heavy details to tool help and using minimal code examples to prevent skills from consuming excessive context.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A skill is a specialized reference guide, technique, or pattern that enhances Claude's behavior when performing specific domain tasks.

개발자 도구

Standardizes the creation and optimization of Claude Code skills using Test-Driven Development principles and search optimization.

소개

This skill provides a rigorous framework for developing, testing, and optimizing specialized capabilities within Claude Code. By applying Test-Driven Development (TDD) to process documentation, users can ensure that new skills are discoverable, token-efficient, and effective at guiding agent behavior. The skill defines the Red-Green-Refactor cycle for documentation, provides templates for SKILL.md files, and introduces Claude Search Optimization (CSO) to ensure agents load the right context at the right time.
