What are the core components of a skill?

Every skill requires a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter. Optional components include scripts for deterministic logic, references for deep documentation, and assets for output templates.

When should I use a script versus text-based instructions?

Scripts should be used for fragile, error-prone, or repetitive operations that require deterministic reliability, while text instructions are better for high-freedom tasks requiring reasoning.

What is a Claude Code Skill?

A Claude Code Skill is a modular package containing specialized instructions, scripts, and references that enhance Claude's ability to perform specific tasks or handle domain-specific knowledge.

How does this skill help with context window management?

It teaches the principle of 'Concise is Key' and progressive disclosure, ensuring that only the most necessary information is loaded into the context window at any given time.
