What is the anatomy of a standard Claude Skill?

A skill requires a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter metadata and can optionally include directories for scripts, references (documentation), and assets (templates or icons).

Why does the Skill Creator emphasize the Progressive Disclosure principle?

It keeps Claude's context window lean by loading only essential metadata initially, then fetching detailed references or executing scripts only when they become relevant to the task.

How does the Skill Creator handle cross-platform compatibility?

It encourages the use of Python or Node.js over Bash scripts to ensure that automation tools work seamlessly across Windows, macOS, and Linux environments.

What are the recommended file size limits for skills?

The SKILL.md file and all referenced scripts or markdown files should ideally be kept under 200 lines to ensure they are easily digestible by the AI model.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A skill is a modular, self-contained package that extends Claude's capabilities by providing specialized knowledge, workflows, and tool integrations for specific domains.
