Example skill demonstrating the SKILL.md format
# Example Skill This is an example skill that demonstrates the format for creating custom skills. ## Purpose Skills extend the agent's capabilities by providing specialized knowledge, workflows, and instructions for specific tasks or domains. ## Structure Each skill is a directory in `skills/` containing: - `SKILL.md` (required): Main documentation with frontmatter metadata - Additional files: Scripts, configs, or reference materials (optional) ## Frontmatter The SKILL.md file must start with YAML frontmatter: ```yaml --- name: skill-name description: Brief description of what the skill does --- ``` ## Usage The agent automatically loads all skills from `skills/` and includes their content in the context. You can: - Create new skills with the `create_skill` tool - List available skills with the `list_skills` tool - Read skill content with the `read_skill` tool - Delete skills with the `delete_skill` tool ## Tips - Keep skills concise and focused - Use concrete examples over lengthy explanations - Include command templates when applicable - One skill per domain
