Where are Claude Code skills stored?

Skills can be stored at the project level (.claude/skills/), the personal level (~/.claude/skills/), or managed at the enterprise level.

How does the Progressive Disclosure principle work?

It uses a three-level loading system (Metadata, SKILL.md body, and Bundled Resources) to ensure Claude only uses the context it needs, preserving the context window for the actual task.

Can I include executable scripts in a Claude skill?

Yes, skills can include a 'scripts/' directory containing Python, Bash, or other executable code that Claude can run to perform deterministic tasks reliably.

What is a Claude Code Skill?
