Create Claude Code Skills Correctly
Creating AI skills can be confusing when folder scope, file names, and frontmatter rules are unclear. This skill gives a practical workflow for building Claude Code skills with consistent structure and version control.
Supports: Claude Codex Code(CC)
Stop for confirmation before installing.
Review the plan and obtain explicit user consent before changing files.
Install with my Agent
Copy this request to your Agent. It includes the canonical Skill page and manifest.
Agent request
Review the Skillstore skill "skill-creator" from https://skillstore.io/skills/chinchillaenterprises-skill-creator.md and its manifest at https://skillstore.io/api/skills/chinchillaenterprises-skill-creator/manifest. Verify the artifact. Stop and obtain explicit user consent before installing or changing files.Your Agent should still show its plan and request any confirmation required by the security policy.

Test it
Using "skill-creator". I need a reusable skill for code review.
Expected outcome:
- Recommended scope: global, because code review can apply across repositories.
- Suggested name: code-review.
- Required sections: purpose, activation, workflow overview, critical rules, success criteria, and example.
- Next step: create the skill file in the global skills folder after user approval.
Using "skill-creator". Review my skill draft before I install it.
Expected outcome:
- The name follows the lowercase hyphen rule.
- The frontmatter includes the required name and description fields.
- The description should add clearer trigger words for activation.
- The workflow should include a short testing step before committing.
Using "skill-creator". Should this project deployment skill be global?
Expected outcome:
- Project-local is likely better if the workflow depends on one repository.
- Global is better only if the same process applies across many repositories.
- Document the reason for the chosen scope before installing the skill.
Security Audit
High Riskv8 • 7/5/2026 Open versioned report
Most static external-command findings are false positives caused by Markdown backticks and fenced examples, and the hardcoded URL is only a repository reference. The filesystem findings are confirmed because the skill intentionally guides users toward persistent writes under ~/.claude/skills, which can affect assistant behavior globally. Additional contextual risk comes from the repeated instruction to commit and push global skills to a shared repository.

Confirmed security concerns (2)
High
Persistent Global Assistant Skill Modification
The skill presents ~/.claude/skills as the default location and says most skills belong there. Following this guidance can install persistent assistant instructions that apply across all projects.
Multiple explicit lines identify ~/.claude/skills as the default global location and success criterion. The security impact is contextual persistence, not merely the presence of a hidden path.
Medium
Shared Repository Publication Workflow
The skill repeatedly tells users to commit and push global skills to a shared ChillSkills repository. That workflow can publish private project details or sensitive instructions if a generated skill is not reviewed first.
The commit and push workflow is repeated in several sections and the repository is explicitly identified. The risk depends on user content, so confidence is high for the workflow and moderate for actual exposure.
Capability review items (40)
These are real local capabilities that may be expected for this skill, so they require review but are not counted as confirmed malicious behavior.

What You Can Build
Create a Personal Skill Library
Build reusable assistant skills with consistent names, folders, and frontmatter.
Standardize Team Skill Creation
Give contributors a repeatable checklist for adding skills to a shared repository.
Teach Skill File Requirements
Explain the structure needed for skill discovery, activation, and testing.
Try These Prompts
Create a Basic Skill
Use the skill creator guidance to help me create a global skill named [skill-name] for [purpose]. Include the required sections.
Choose Skill Scope
Use the skill creator guidance to decide whether my skill for [workflow] should be global or project-local. Explain the placement choice.
Review a Skill Draft
Use the skill creator checklist to review my draft skill for naming, frontmatter, folder placement, and missing sections.
Plan a Shared Skill Workflow
Use the skill creator guidance to design a team process for creating, reviewing, testing, and versioning shared Claude Code skills.
Best Practices
- Confirm scope before writing files to global or project-local assistant folders.
- Use clear trigger words in each skill description so activation is predictable.
- Test a new skill before committing it to a shared repository.
Avoid
- Do not place project-specific instructions in a global skill by default.
- Do not omit YAML frontmatter from the skill file.
- Do not push private or unreviewed skill content to a shared repository.
Frequently Asked Questions
What does this skill help me create?
It helps create Claude Code skills with the expected file structure, naming, frontmatter, and workflow sections.
Does it create skills automatically?
It provides workflow guidance. File creation and Git actions should still require user review and approval.
When should a skill be global?
A skill should be global when it is reusable across repositories and does not depend on one project.
When should a skill be project-local?
A skill should be project-local when it only makes sense for one repository or one project workflow.
Why is YAML frontmatter important?
The frontmatter provides the name and description that allow the assistant to discover and activate the skill.
What should I review before publishing a skill?
Review the scope, trigger words, safety constraints, file path, and any content that might expose private information.
