SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? New Skill authors often struggle with inconsistent structure, missing frontmatter, and unclear trigger descriptions. This template standardizes how Skills are written so every new Skill includes proper discovery metadata and operational guidance. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Standardized Frontmatter: Enforces the required name and description YAML fields, with guidance to write trigger-focused descriptions starting with "Use when". - Structured Sections: Provides Overview, When to Use, Quick Reference, Implementation, and Common Mistakes sections as a consistent authoring scaffold. - Use Case: When creating a new Skill for a Claude or Codex workflow, copy this template, replace the placeholder content, and follow the inline guidance to produce a discoverable, well-documented Skill. ## Quick Start Copy this template directory, rename it, and fill in each section with your Skill's specific triggers, instructions, and examples.

FAQPage Schema

How do I create a new Skill for Claude Code?▼

Copy this template directory, rename it to your Skill's name, and edit SKILL.md. Fill in the YAML frontmatter with a name and a description starting with "Use when", then complete the Overview, When to Use, and Implementation sections.

What should a Skill description contain?▼

The description should start with "Use when" and describe the specific triggering conditions and symptoms in third person. It should explain when to activate the Skill, not what the Skill does internally.

What sections should a SKILL.md file include?▼

A well-structured SKILL.md includes Overview, When to Use (with explicit non-use cases), Quick Reference table, Implementation details, and Common Mistakes. This template provides all of these as fill-in placeholders.

Can a Skill reference other skills as dependencies?▼

Yes, the template includes a commented pattern for referencing required background skills by name, such as superpowers:test-driven-development. This is a soft runtime pointer that requires no installation.
