What this skill does

Intro in this page language first. The official description stays in its original wording; we do not rewrite SKILL.md.

What it does

Reusable template for authoring new Agent Skills with clear triggers, workflow, and I/O contracts.

When to use it

The official description does not include a separate “Use when”. Per the spec, agents activate this skill when the task matches keywords in that description.

How agents load it

Per Agent Skills progressive disclosure: name and description load at startup (~100 tokens); the full SKILL.md body loads when the skill activates; scripts/, references/, and assets/ load only as needed. This file's sections: <skill-name>; Triggers; Use Cases; Inputs; Outputs; Workflow. It includes spec-recommended sections: step-by-step instructions, input/output examples, edge cases.

File analysis

File analysis: instruction-only skill (SKILL.md). The agent loads the full body when activated.
