Intermediate Example Skill

This skill demonstrates more comprehensive metadata usage and includes example files in an examples/ subdirectory.

Features

• Version tracking: Semantic versioning
• Authorship: Author and date information
• Categorization: Tags and category for organization
• Complexity: Indicates skill difficulty level
• Examples: Reference example files in the skill folder

Folder Structure

intermediate-example/
├── SKILL.md              ← This file
└── examples/             ← Optional examples folder
    └── demo.py           ← Example Python script

Metadata Fields

Required

• name: Unique identifier
• description: Brief description

Optional (shown in this skill)

• version: Semantic version
• author: Skill creator
• created, updated: ISO dates
• category: Main category
• tags: List of tags for searching
• complexity: beginner, intermediate, or advanced
• has_examples: Boolean flag
• example_files: Paths relative to skill folder

Using Examples

The examples/demo.py file shows a simple Python script that demonstrates the concept. You can reference these files in your skill documentation.

Best Practices

1. Use semantic versioning for the version field
2. Keep tags relevant and lowercase
3. Set appropriate complexity to help users find suitable skills
4. List all example files in the frontmatter
5. Organize examples in subdirectories
