Bundling Resources with a Skill

Ship templates, data, and references inside the skill folder.

Because a skill is a folder, anything the workflow needs can travel with it: a config template, a data file, a checklist, an example set. The skill body references these by relative path so the material is always in reach, wherever the skill is installed.

.claude/skills/invoice/
  SKILL.md
  templates/invoice.html
  data/tax-rates.json
  references/formatting.md

Keep bundled files small and purposeful. Every file is part of the skill's contract — if it is not referenced by SKILL.md, it should not be in the folder.
