What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Claude Code Skill is a modular, self-contained package that extends Claude's capabilities by providing specialized knowledge, domain expertise, tool integrations, and procedural workflows.

Why should I include scripts in my Claude Skill?

Scripts provide deterministic reliability for repetitive or fragile tasks and are token-efficient because they can be executed without being fully loaded into the model's active context window.

How does the progressive disclosure design principle work?

It manages the context window by only loading information when needed: metadata is always present, the SKILL.md body loads when triggered, and bundled resources load only when specific tasks require them.

What is the difference between References and Assets?

References are documentation or schemas intended for Claude to read and inform its process, while Assets are files (like logos or boilerplate) meant to be used in the final output without being analyzed.
