Skills help

Create a skill

In the Skills panel, click New. Choose the name and storage location (global or a specific project), then edit the generated SKILL.md.

Run a skill

Select a skill and use the Run action. Pick the target project when prompted; progress appears in Background Work, and output opens on completion.

Edit frontmatter

The authoring form edits the skill’s frontmatter — name, description, and declared inputs. Changes are saved back into the SKILL.md header.

Scope a skill to a project

A project-scoped skill lives under that project’s .claude/skills. Use the scope control to move a skill between global and project scope.
