10. Skills

Notes

Skills Skills are reusable, invocable workflows you can run inside Claude Code with a /skill-name command. They package up knowledge, instructions, and context so Claude can follow a consistent process for a repeated task.

Skills are defined in Markdown files stored in .claude/skills/. Each skill gets its own folder with a SKILL.md file. Once installed, you can invoke it with /skill-name in any Claude Code session.
