What this skill does
Skills Factory A comprehensive meta-skill for creating, validating, and iterating on production-ready Claude Code skills. About Skills Skills extend Claude Code's capabilities with specialized knowledge and workflows. They use a progressive disclosure system that loads content in three levels: 1. Metadata (YAML) - Always loaded at startup (~100 tokens) 2. Instructions (SKILL.md body) - Loaded when triggered (<5,000 tokens) 3. Resources (supporting files) - Loaded as needed (effectively unlimited) Skills are filesystem-based tools that live in ~/.claude/skills/ (personal) or .claude/skills/ (project-specific). Skill Creation Process Step 1: Understanding the Domain Before writing anything, deeply understand what you're building: Ask Critical Questions: What specific problem does this skill solve? Who is the user and what's their context? What tasks should be automated vs. guided? What knowledge must Claude have vs. can reference? How will success be measured? Research Thoroughly: Review similar existing skills Study relevant documentation Understand the workflow domain Identify edge cases and failure modes Define Success Criteria: What specific outcomes indicate the skill works? What would success look like without the skill vs. with it? How will you evaluate effectiveness? See: references/EVALUATIONGUIDE.md for evaluation-driven development methodology. …
