Add a New Skill

Create a new directory inside skills/ using a lowercase kebab-case name.
Copy templates/skill-template/SKILL.md into that directory.
Update the name field so it exactly matches the directory name.
Replace the placeholder description with a specific trigger-oriented description.
Fill in the instructions with the workflow you want agents to follow.
Add optional references/, scripts/, or assets/ folders only when needed.

Example:

skills/
└── your-skill-name/
    ├── SKILL.md
    ├── references/
    ├── scripts/
    └── assets/

Authoring Rules

Keep skill names lowercase and hyphenated.
Keep SKILL.md focused and practical.
Put long reference material in references/ instead of bloating SKILL.md.
Write descriptions so an agent can tell when to activate the skill.
Prefer reusable workflows over product-specific prompts.

See docs/authoring.md for a fuller checklist.
