## Capabilities

- Guides authors through Claude Code skill structure and SKILL.md frontmatter.
- Provides validation scripts for metadata, references, and common skill authoring issues.
- Packages a skill folder into a zip file for sharing or upload.
- Installs validated skills into personal or project Claude Code skill directories.
- Explains evaluation-driven development and two-Claude testing workflows.
- Includes troubleshooting references for common skill loading and validation failures.

## Use Cases

- Create a new team skill: Generate a structured skill with clear instructions, references, and validation steps before sharing it with a team.
- Validate an existing skill: Check a skill for frontmatter, references, naming, and packaging issues before distribution.
- Package skills for deployment: Prepare a skill folder for Claude Code, Claude Desktop, or API-based distribution using repeatable packaging guidance.

## Prompt Templates

### Start a basic skill

```
Help me create a simple Claude Code skill for [task]. Ask me for the goal, target users, and tools before drafting the structure.
```

### Improve skill structure

```
Review my SKILL.md for clarity, progressive disclosure, required metadata, and missing reference files. Suggest specific edits.
```

### Validate and package

```
Walk me through validating and packaging this skill. Explain each command before I run it and flag any filesystem changes.
```

### Design an evaluation workflow

```
Create an evaluation plan for this skill using realistic success cases, edge cases, failure cases, and a second-agent review loop.
```

## Limitations

- Requires users to review and run local Python scripts manually.
- Focuses on Claude Code skill workflows rather than general agent framework development.
- Does not guarantee marketplace approval or security review success.
- Some examples use shell commands that need user judgment before execution.

## Best Practices

- Review every generated command before running it, especially commands that copy, delete, or install files.
- Keep SKILL.md concise and place detailed workflows in reference files.
- Test skills with success, edge, and failure scenarios before sharing them.

## Anti Patterns

- Do not create broad skills that trigger for unrelated development tasks.
- Do not package secrets, private configuration, or local machine paths into shared skills.
- Do not rely on packaging alone as proof that the skill is safe or useful.

## Security Audit

- Audited at: 2026-07-09T04:09:46.556\+00:00
- Summary: Most static findings are documentation examples for Claude skill installation, validation commands, and official Anthropic API usage. Confirmed risks are limited to user-facing local command guidance, an example recursive delete command, and installer filesystem changes that can overwrite or remove an existing skill directory after confirmation.
