# Example Skill

Example Skill shows the minimal structure for a reusable Claude Code skill. Use it as a starting point when you want to capture a repeatable workflow and replace it with your own instructions.

**Install:**

```bash
npx degit https://github.com/PromptPartner/agentsmith/tree/master/skills/example-skill ~/.claude/skills/example-skill
```

## README

# Example Skill

This is a working but trivial skill, here to show the shape. Copy this folder, rename it, and
rewrite the body with your real workflow.

## When this fires
The agent loads this when the task matches the `description` above, or when you invoke it using
the client's supported skill syntax. Keep the description precise — it's the only thing the agent
matches on.

## Steps
1. State the goal in one line.
2. Do the work, following the project's `core/` rules (verify before done, no secrets, etc.).
3. Report the outcome with evidence.

## Notes
- Put supporting files (scripts, references, longer instructions) next to this `SKILL.md`;
  they load only when referenced (progressive disclosure — keeps context lean).
- Delete this example once you've added your own skills.
