What This Skill Does

Guide for creating and updating AI agent skills — structured packages of knowledge, workflows, and tool integrations that extend agent capabilities.

When to Use It

  • Creating a new skill from scratch
  • Updating an existing skill with new capabilities
  • Structuring a skill package with proper metadata
  • Writing effective SKILL.md files

Skill Structure

  • Keep scripts self-contained with clear inputs/outputs
  • Test the skill end-to-end before publishing
