A meta skill for building skills. If you're creating a new capability for Claude or refactoring an existing one, this lays out the full architecture: YAML frontmatter for triggering, markdown body for instructions, and optional bundled resources like scripts, references, and assets. The core insight here is progressive disclosure, keeping the always-loaded metadata lean while deferring detailed docs until Claude actually needs them. Particularly useful is the guidance on degrees of freedom, helping you decide whether to use prose instructions, pseudocode, or rigid scripts depending on how fragile the task is. Think of it as the construction manual for the other skills in this marketplace.
