Custom Claude Skills

Reusable Claude Code skills shared across all projects.

Setup

# Clone and install
cd ~/dev/claude/custom-claude-skills
./scripts/install.sh

The install script creates symlinks from ~/.claude/skills/ to this repo, making all skills available in every project.

Available Skills

Skill Invocation Description
reflect /reflect M8 Milestone reflection — reviews conversation history, git log, and project docs to produce structured reflection artifacts across MEMORY.md, FUTURE.md, README.md, and CLAUDE.md

Adding a New Skill

  1. Create skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter and instructions
  2. Run ./scripts/install.sh to create the symlink
  3. Update this README's skill table

How Skills Work

Skills are Claude Code's extensibility mechanism. Each skill is a markdown file with:

  • YAML frontmatter — metadata, tool restrictions, execution mode
  • Dynamic context injection!command`` blocks run at load time to pre-fetch data
  • Structured instructions — what Claude should do when the skill is invoked

Skills in ~/.claude/skills/ are available across all projects (personal scope).

Scripts

Script Purpose When to run
scripts/install.sh Symlinks all skills into ~/.claude/skills/ After cloning or adding new skills
