.claude/skills/ directory. Claude Code picks it up in a new
conversation.
After installing, you don't have to invoke the skill explicitly. Claude reads the metadata at startup and pulls the full instructions in when your request matches. You ask the question the skill is designed for and the right behavior shows up. If you want to be sure it's loaded, mention the skill by name once.
Skills are designed to be read before you install them. Unzip and open
SKILL.md. It's a few hundred words of plain English. If you
wouldn't approve those instructions being given to a junior on your team,
don't install the skill. That goes for these and for any other skill you
pick up.
Each one is a single workflow distilled from one or more of the leadership guides. More are being added.

These are plain-text instruction files. Nothing executes on your machine. Nothing reports back to me. There is no analytics ping, no license check-in, no auto-update. I don't know who downloaded what. The skills either run inside your Claude environment or they don't run at all.
A shared skill needs a named owner, a review point, and a result somebody can check. Claude Skills Need an Owner covers the part that makes a useful workflow safe to hand to a team.
