What is a skill chain in Claude Code?

A skill chain is a sequence of specialized AI capabilities (skills) defined in a YAML format that execute in a specific order to complete a larger, complex project.

Are there pre-defined workflows included?

Yes, the skill includes several pre-built chains for common tasks such as API development, full-stack feature implementation, and career preparation.

Do I need an external engine to run these chains?

No, Skill Chain Prompts runs directly within the Claude Code environment using sequential processing and internal state tracking to manage the workflow.

Can I pause a chain to review the output manually?

Yes, you can define 'checkpoints' in your YAML configuration which will pause execution and allow you to review artifacts before using the /resume command.

How do I track the progress of a running chain?

You can use the /status command at any time to see a visual markdown table showing which steps are complete, in progress, or pending.
