What is the anatomy of a standard Claude Skill?

A standard skill consists of a required SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter and Markdown instructions, plus optional directories for scripts, references, and assets.

What are bundled resources in a skill?

Bundled resources include executable scripts for deterministic tasks, reference documents for domain knowledge, and assets like templates or icons used in Claude's output.

How does this skill help with context window management?

It teaches the Progressive Disclosure principle, using a three-level loading system (Metadata, SKILL.md, and Bundled Resources) to ensure Claude only uses tokens for what is relevant to the current task.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Skill is a modular, self-contained package that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, tools, and workflows for specific technical domains or tasks.
