Beginner

Build Your First Claude Skill

Start from zero. Understand what a Claude skill is, read a real SKILL.md, then write, invoke, and verify your own — no prior skill experience needed.

  • 5 lessons
  • ~45 min

You'll be able to: You can author a minimal skill and confirm Claude invokes it on the right request.

Intermediate

Author Skills That Trigger Reliably

The difference between a skill that helps and one that gathers dust is triggering. Go deep on descriptions, frontmatter, scoping, and progressive disclosure so your skills fire exactly when they should.

  • 5 lessons
  • ~50 min

You'll be able to: You can write descriptions and structure files so a skill loads on the right task and stays out of the way otherwise.

Advanced

Package & Share Your Skills

Turn a working skill into something you can bundle scripts with, run across tools, and hand to a teammate or the community — with versioning that does not break their setups.

  • 4 lessons
  • ~40 min

You'll be able to: You can ship a skill that bundles executable helpers and distribute it without surprising its users.
