Quick Start

Create a New Skill

Ask Claude Code:

Create a skill for [what you want to automate]

Claude will follow the official 6-step process:

1. Ask clarifying questions with concrete examples
2. Plan reusable resources (scripts, references, assets)
3. Initialize with proper structure
4. Implement the skill with resources
5. Update the catalog
6. Offer deployment options

Or Use the Init Script

python scripts/init_skill.py my-skill-name --path skills/development

Then edit the generated SKILL.md and supporting files.

Installing Skills

Option 1: Plugin Marketplace (Recommended)

The easiest way to use these skills is through the Claude Code plugin marketplace:

Step 1: Add the marketplace

/plugin marketplace add hopeoverture/worldbuilding-app-skills

Step 2: Install plugins

/plugin install nextjs-fullstack-scaffold@worldbuilding-app-skills
/plugin install tailwind-shadcn-ui-setup@worldbuilding-app-skills
/plugin install form-generator-rhf-zod@worldbuilding-app-skills

Benefits:

• One-command installation and updates
• Easy discovery and version management
• Works across all your projects
• Official distribution method

See docs/plugin-marketplace-guide.md for complete plugin marketplace documentation.

Option 2: Direct Copy

Quick Deploy to Project:

# Copy to your worldbuilding app's .claude/skills directory
cp -r skills/category/skill-name /path/to/worldbuilding-app/.claude/skills/

Deploy to Personal Use (All Projects):

cp -r skills/category/skill-name ~/.claude/skills/

Deploy from Packaged Zip:

# All skills are pre-packaged in dist/
unzip dist/skill-name.zip -d /path/to/project/.claude/skills/

For Complete Deployment Guide: See docs/skill-deployment-guide.md for detailed instructions, troubleshooting, and best practices.
