## CREATE CUSTOM SKILL

mcp__code-forge__create_skill
  name: "<name>"
  description: "<description>"
  content: "<content>"
  project_path: "{cwd}"
```

```
✓ Created skill '<name>' in {cwd}/.claude/skills/<name>

The skill is now available in this project!
```

## VIEW SKILL

**Step 1: Get Skill Details**

First try project scope, then global:
```
mcp__code-forge__get_skill
  name: "<name>"
  scope: "project"
  project_path: "{cwd}"
```

If not found:
```
mcp__code-forge__get_skill
  name: "<name>"
  scope: "global"
```

**Step 2: Display Skill**

## DELETE SKILL

When user runs `/claude-os-skills delete <name>`:

**Step 1: Confirm with User**
```
⚠️  Are you sure you want to delete the '<name>' skill?

This will remove it from {cwd}/.claude/skills/<name>

Type 'yes' to confirm, or anything else to cancel.
```

**Step 2: Delete if Confirmed**
```
mcp__code-forge__delete_skill
  name: "<name>"
  project_path: "{cwd}"
```

**Step 3: Confirm**
```
✓ Deleted skill '<name>' from project
```

**Note:** Cannot delete global skills (memory, memory). These are core to Claude OS.

---

## SKILL LOCATIONS

- **Global Skills**: `~/.claude/skills/`
  - Available in ALL projects
  - Core skills: memory, memory

- **Project Skills**: `{project}/.claude/skills/`
  - Available only in that project
  - Installed from templates or custom created

- **Templates**: `claude-os/templates/skill-library/`
  - Categorized templates to install

---

## TIPS

1. **Start with templates** - Install what you need per-project
2. **Keep global minimal** - Only core skills should be global
3. **Customize templates** - After installing, edit for your needs
4. **Create custom skills** - Document project-specific patterns

---
