How do I initialize a new skill?

You can use the provided init_skill.py script to automatically generate the required directory structure, including the SKILL.md file and resource folders.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A skill is a modular, self-contained package that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, and tool integrations.

What are bundled resources in Skill Creator?

Resources include executable scripts for reliability, reference documents for context-loaded knowledge, and assets for output templates or boilerplate.

How do I share a skill I've created?

Use the package_skill.py script to validate your skill's structure and bundle it into a distributable zip file.

How does Skill Creator manage context window efficiency?

It follows the Progressive Disclosure principle, loading only metadata first, then the SKILL.md body, and finally specific resources only when Claude determines they are needed.
