SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? Creating a new agent skill from scratch requires knowing the expected SKILL.md frontmatter format, directory conventions, and packaging rules. This template gives contributors a ready-made starting point so new skills follow the Recursica repository structure correctly. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Standardized Frontmatter: Ships a SKILL.md with the required name, description, license, and metadata fields pre-structured for discovery. - Packaging Compatibility: Aligns with the repository build script that zips any directory containing a SKILL.md into the dist folder. - Use Case: A contributor documenting a new Recursica component copies this template, replaces the placeholder description and instructions, and the build pipeline automatically packages it as a distributable skill. ## Quick Start Copy this template directory, rename it for your new skill, and replace the placeholder description and instructions in SKILL.md with your actual content.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new Claude agent skill from a template?▼

Copy the template directory, update the SKILL.md frontmatter with a unique name and description, then write your instructions in the Markdown body. Any directory containing a valid SKILL.md is treated as a skill by the build script.

What fields are required in SKILL.md frontmatter?▼

The frontmatter must define at least a name and a description for the skill to be discoverable. This template also includes license, author, and version metadata fields that you can keep or adjust.

How are skills packaged in the recursica-knowledge repository?▼

Running npm run build scans the skills directory and compresses each folder containing a SKILL.md into an individual zip file in the dist folder. No extra registration step is needed beyond having a valid SKILL.md.

Can I add scripts or reference files to a skill?▼

Yes, a skill may include optional scripts, references, and assets directories alongside SKILL.md. These resources are loaded on demand as directed by the skill instructions.
