What it does
- Gives you the standard
SKILL.mdskeleton for a brand-new Claude Code skill. - Ships with complete frontmatter (name, description, version, author, tags, license) plus a body outline.
- The outline covers Goal / Usage (inputs & outputs) / 3-step core logic / Caveats / 2 examples, nudging you to document the trigger conditions people usually forget.
- Demonstrates useful conventions: input parameters as a markdown table, output described as a JSON block.
- Note: every field is a
<placeholder>— installing it as-is does nothing until you fill it in. Docs are written in Chinese.
Who it's for
- First-time Claude Code skill authors.
- Teams that want a consistent document format across many internal skills.
- Anyone unsure what sections a SKILL.md should contain.
Examples
- Build a meeting-notes summarizer — copy the folder to
meeting-summary, set the trigger to "user pastes a meeting transcript", and fill the core logic with "split speakers → extract decisions → output an action-item table". - Team code-review rules skill — declare
diffandlanguagein the input table, define the output JSON as an array of findings, then share it with the team. - Use it as an audit checklist — compare an existing skill against the template's sections (trigger, caveats, examples) and patch whatever is missing.

Try it now, no install
Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.
Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me: https://raw.githubusercontent.com/anbeime/skill/HEAD/skills/_template/SKILL.md What I want: (describe your task here)
If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.
↓ If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.
Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
- Download the ZIP with the button below.
- In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
- Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Install in Claude Code
Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code
Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart. Copy the skills/_template folder from the GitHub repo anbeime/skill into my ~/.claude/skills/skill-template/. When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.
Install with a command instead
git clone https://github.com/anbeime/skill.git && cp -r skill/skills/_template ~/.claude/skills/my-new-skill⚠ This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.
- Open your terminal.
- Clone the repo:
git clone https://github.com/anbeime/skill.git - Create the skills folder if needed:
mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills - Copy the template under a new name:
cp -r skill/skills/_template ~/.claude/skills/my-new-skill - Open
~/.claude/skills/my-new-skill/SKILL.mdin your editor. - Change the frontmatter
nameto match the folder, and write adescriptionthat states exactly when Claude should invoke the skill. - Replace every
<...>placeholder with real content — especially the two worked examples. - Restart Claude Code and mention the matching scenario to verify the skill triggers.
