What is a Claude Code Skill?

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

Can I restrict what tools a skill can use?

Yes, you can use the 'allowed-tools' field in the SKILL.md frontmatter to restrict Claude to specific operations like Read, Grep, or Glob for security-sensitive workflows.

Where should I store my new Claude Skills?

You can store skills in ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use across all projects, or in a specific project's .claude/skills/ directory to share them with your team via Git.

Why isn't Claude using my custom skill?

Activation issues are usually caused by vague descriptions in the YAML frontmatter. This tool helps you write specific trigger words and 'Use when...' clauses to ensure discovery.
