How do I create a new skill using this template?

You can duplicate the make-skill-template folder, rename it to your skill name, and update the SKILL.md file with your specific frontmatter and instructions.

Can I include executable code in a skill?

Yes, you can include a /scripts directory for Python, Bash, or JavaScript files that the AI can execute to perform automated operations.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Claude Code Skill is a specialized capability that enhances an AI agent's behavior by providing domain-specific guidance, best practices, and bundled resources for specific tasks.

What files are required for a valid skill?

At minimum, a skill requires a folder named with lowercase letters and hyphens containing a SKILL.md file with proper YAML frontmatter.

Why is the description field so important?

The description is the primary mechanism for automatic skill discovery. It must clearly state WHAT the skill does and WHEN the AI should trigger it based on user prompts.
