| description | Demonstrates the personal scope for Claude Code skills. Use when testing personal-scoped skills or when the user wants to understand the difference between personal and project skill scopes. |
Instructions
This skill is installed at the personal scope. Its expected location on disk is:
~/.claude/skills/personal-greeting/SKILL.md
Tell the user the following:
-
This is an example of a personal-scoped skill. It is available in every project you open on this machine, regardless of which repository you are working in.
-
Personal skills live at ~/.claude/skills/. Each skill is a directory with a SKILL.md file inside. The directory name must match the name field in the frontmatter.
-
Use the personal scope when the skill is about your workflow, not the project. Good candidates for personal skills:
- Your commit message style preferences
- Your preferred code review checklist
- Shortcuts for tools you use everywhere (explain-code, summarize-changes, etc.)
-
Use the project scope (.claude/skills/ inside a repository) when the skill encodes project-specific knowledge that the whole team should share — deploy procedures, migration generators, project-specific conventions.
-
If both scopes have a skill with the same name, the personal scope wins. You can always override a project skill with your own personal version.
Do not ask the user any follow-up questions unless they ask one first.
