What are the required fields for a Claude Skill?

Every SKILL.md must start with YAML frontmatter containing exactly two required fields: 'name' (max 64 chars) and 'description' (max 1024 chars).

Does Claude Code support nested skill subdirectories?

No, Claude Code does not support nested namespaces. Skills must be placed directly under the top-level skill directory to be correctly discovered.

What is the benefit of progressive disclosure in Claude Skills?

It allows you to install 100+ skills while only using ~6KB of initial context. Detailed instructions are only loaded into memory when the specific skill is triggered or matched.

Can project-level skills be shared with a team?

Yes, project skills located in the .claude/skills/ directory of a project root should be committed to version control like Git for team-wide use.

Where should I store my personal Claude skills?

Personal skills should be stored in the ~/.claude/skills/ directory. Each skill must have its own folder containing a SKILL.md file at the top level.
