SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? New skill authors often struggle with the required SKILL.md structure, YAML frontmatter fields, and how to organize supporting reference files. This template gives a ready-to-copy starting point so every new skill follows a consistent, valid format. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Standard SKILL.md Scaffold: Includes the mandatory YAML frontmatter with name and description fields plus structured sections like Overview, Quick Start, and Common Patterns. - Reference File Examples: Ships two example reference documents showing how to document patterns, code examples, variations, and best practices. - Common Issues Table: Demonstrates how to document troubleshooting guidance in a consistent table format. - Use Case: When creating a new skill for the Databricks skills collection, copy this template directory, rename it, and replace the placeholder content with your skill's actual instructions and examples. ## Quick Start Copy the template directory and ask the assistant to fill in the SKILL.md frontmatter and sections for a new skill about your chosen topic.

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

Copy the template directory, rename it to your skill's name, then edit SKILL.md to replace the placeholder frontmatter name and description. Fill in the Overview, Quick Start, and Common Patterns sections with your skill's actual instructions.

What fields are required in SKILL.md frontmatter?▼

The YAML frontmatter must define at least a name and a description for the skill to be discoverable. The Markdown body after the frontmatter contains the operational instructions loaded when the skill activates.

What sections should a SKILL.md file contain?▼

The template demonstrates Overview, Quick Start, Common Patterns, Reference Files, and Common Issues sections. These give users a summary, a working example, reusable patterns, links to supporting docs, and troubleshooting guidance.

Can I add reference files alongside SKILL.md?▼

Yes, reference markdown files can sit next to SKILL.md and be linked from the Reference Files section. The template includes example_file1.md and example_file2.md showing how to structure pattern documentation with code examples and best practices.

When should I not use this skill template?▼

Skip the template when maintaining an existing skill that already has its own structure, or when your skill requires a different layout mandated by your project. The template is a starting scaffold, not a mandatory format.
