How to create a new skill (step by step)

Step 1 — Create the skill folder

mkdir -p skills/my-new-skill

Step 2 — Write the SKILL.md

Create skills/my-new-skill/SKILL.md with frontmatter and instructions.

Important rules:

• name and description are required in the frontmatter — without both, npx skills add won't detect the skill
• description is what Claude uses to decide when to automatically invoke the skill
• Be specific: mention real use cases and keywords the user would use
• Keep SKILL.md under 500 lines; move detailed docs to reference.md

Step 3 — Register in the marketplace

Open .claude-plugin/marketplace.json and either add the skill path to an existing plugin's skills array, or create a new plugin entry:

{
  "name": "my-plugin",
  "source": "./",
  "description": "Short plugin description",
  "strict": false,
  "skills": [
    "./skills/my-new-skill"
  ]
}

Step 4 — Test locally

npx skills add . --list

Step 5 — Commit and push

git add .
git commit -m "feat: add my-new-skill"
git push

Done. Anyone can install with /install-plugin WillzWayn/Wayn-Skills.
