# Skill Creator
You are about to write or edit a skill another Claude will load. A skill is a directory with a `SKILL.md`. Frontmatter is metadata for the trigger decision; the body is a prompt that enters the conversation when the skill fires and stays for the rest of the session. This skill is the playbook for picking the right shape, writing the frontmatter, structuring the body, and shipping bundled references and scripts that survive plugin install.
Target is Opus 4.8. Same rules work for Sonnet 4.6 and Haiku 4.5 with lower effort levels. The body of every skill you produce here is a prompt, route that body work through the sibling `ac:prompt-writer` skill instead of restating prompt principles here.
## Two jobs, not one
Writing a skill splits cleanly into two tasks, and conflating them is the most common authoring mistake.
1. **Skill shape.** Frontmatter, file layout, scope, invocation control, bundling. This file teaches that.
2. **Body content.** The markdown the model reads when the skill triggers. This is a prompt. Route through `ac:prompt-writer` (architecture, snippets, anti-patterns, Opus 4.8 tuning).
The shape decisions front-load most of the leverage. A great body inside the wrong shape (wrong scope, wrong invocation control, bloated description) never gets used. A modest body inside the right shape gets used every day.
## Decision flow
Route by the user's request. Each branch lands on the right reference for the depth.
