Skill Creator

This skill provides guidance for creating effective skills.

Core Principles

1. Concise is Key: Claude is already smart. Only add context it doesn't have.
2. Progressive Disclosure: Use metadata (triggers), SKILL.md (essentials), and boxed resources (details/scripts).
3. Anatomy: SKILL.md (metadata + body), scripts/, references/, assets/.

Skill Creation Process

1. Understand with concrete examples.
2. Plan reusable content (scripts, references, assets).
3. Initialize (init_skill.py).
4. Edit (procedural knowledge, examples).
5. Package (package_skill.py).

Writing Guidelines

• Use imperative/infinitive form.
• Keep SKILL.md body under 500 lines.
• Move details to references/.
