High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a new Skill from a template?▼

Copy the template directory, then edit SKILL.md to replace the placeholder name and description in the YAML frontmatter. Write your operational instructions in the Markdown body below the frontmatter.

What fields are required in SKILL.md frontmatter?▼

The YAML frontmatter must define at least a name and a description. These two fields are used for Skill discovery, and the Markdown body after the frontmatter provides the instructions loaded on activation.

Can a Skill include scripts or reference files?▼

Yes, a Skill may optionally include scripts/, references/, and assets/ directories alongside SKILL.md. Scripts are executed for deterministic tasks, references are read for detailed information, and assets store document data.

Why is my Skill not being discovered?▼

Discovery fails when SKILL.md is missing at the directory root or the frontmatter lacks a name or description. Verify the file is named SKILL.md and the YAML block is properly formatted with both required fields.
