Skill Development
This is the meta skill that defines how to write skills themselves. It enforces structural rules for keeping skill files under 200 lines, requiring clear "When to Use" sections, and mandating bash commands over prose explanations. The guidance on MCP wrapper skills is smart: restrict to only Bash and Read tools, point to scripts in the scripts directory, and document parameters. The DON'Ts are equally useful, especially avoiding implementation details in the main SKILL.md and ensuring every skill has a corresponding trigger in skill-rules.json. If you're building your own skills or customizing Claude's behavior, you'll want this loaded so it keeps your skill definitions clean and consistent.
