How do I make my skill token-efficient?

Follow the Progressive Disclosure principle: keep the SKILL.md file lean (under 500 lines) and move detailed references or large schemas into separate files that Claude only loads when necessary.

When should I use low degrees of freedom in a skill?

Use low freedom (specific scripts or strict sequences) when operations are fragile, error-prone, or where consistency is absolutely critical to the outcome.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A specialized capability that enhances Claude's behavior by providing domain-specific guidance, implementation patterns, and tool integrations for specific tasks.

What is the anatomy of a skill?

Every skill requires a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter metadata and markdown instructions. It can optionally include scripts/, references/, and assets/ directories.

What are bundled resources in a skill?

Bundled resources include scripts for deterministic tasks, references for deep domain knowledge, and assets like templates or icons used in Claude's output.

开发者工具

Guides the development and optimization of custom Claude Code skills to extend AI capabilities with specialized knowledge and workflows.

The Skill Creator provides a comprehensive framework for building modular, high-efficiency skills that transform Claude into a domain-specific agent. It emphasizes the principle of 'Progressive Disclosure' to manage the context window effectively, offering standardized patterns for organizing documentation, executable scripts, and static assets. By following these best practices, developers can create tools that are token-efficient, deterministic, and highly specialized for complex tasks ranging from specialized API integrations to proprietary business logic.
