What is a skill chain in Claude Code?

A skill chain is a predefined sequence of specialized AI capabilities linked together to complete a complex goal, where each step passes context and artifacts to the next.

Can I pause a workflow to check the AI's progress?

Yes, you can define checkpoints in your YAML configuration that trigger a pause, allowing you to review artifacts and manually approve the next step in the chain.

Do I need an external engine to run these workflows?

No, Skill Chain Prompts operates entirely within Claude's native sequential processing environment using prompt-based orchestration and state tracking.

What happens if an optional step in the workflow fails?

You can mark steps as optional in the chain definition, allowing you to use the skip command to continue the workflow without breaking the entire sequence.
