What you'll learn

Set Up Your First SKILL.md File

Learn to build the folder and SKILL.md file a skill needs, and what goes in the frontmatter versus the body.

Pick a Workflow Worth Turning Into a Skill

Learn to spot which of your repeated workflows fit a skill, and which ones are too open-ended to be worth it.

Write a Description That Actually Triggers

Learn to write the description field with real trigger phrases so Claude Code loads your skill when you need it.

Build, Install, and Test a Commit Message Skill

Learn to build a working commit-message-writer skill end to end, install it, test it, and fix what does not trigger.

Why this topic matters

Don't treat Claude Code like a chatbot, re-explaining the same workflow every session and getting a different answer each time. A skill is a markdown file that loads automatically and runs your workflow the same way every time. Skip it and you keep paying tokens to re-teach your own process. Skills follow an open standard, so the same file works in Copilot, Cursor, and Gemini CLI.
