Authoring Skills | Agent Skills Atlas

About this skill

Use when authoring or auditing a Claude skill (SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter), refining an existing skill, or reviewing a skill against a chassis. Trigger phrases include "write a skill", "author a skill", "audit this skill", "review the skill", "skill structure", "skill shape", "SKILL.md template", "skill description", "skill frontmatter", "skill not triggering". Covers Claude Code skills, plugin skills, personal ~/.claude/skills, and project-local .claude/skills/. Applies to principle-doc skills (durable knowledge about a concern) and procedural skills (workflow with input/output). Do NOT use for slash commands, hooks, or MCP servers; those have different shapes.
