 3. Domain expertise - Company-specific knowledge, schemas, business logic
 4. Bundled resources - Scripts, references, and assets for complex and repetitive tasks
 
+## Core Principles
+
+### Concise is Key
+
+The context window is a public good. Skills share the context window with everything else Claude needs: system prompt, conversation history, other Skills' metadata, and the actual user request.
+
+**Default assumption: Claude is already very smart.** Only add context Claude doesn't already have. Challenge each piece of information: "Does Claude really need this explanation?" and "Does this paragraph justify its token cost?"
+
+Prefer concise examples over verbose explanations.
+
+### Set Appropriate Degrees of Freedom
+
+Match the level of specificity to the task's fragility and variability:
+
+**High freedom (text-based instructions)**: Use when multiple approaches are valid, decisions depend on context, or heuristics guide the approach.
+
+**Medium freedom (pseudocode or scripts with parameters)**: Use when a preferred pattern exists, some variation is acceptable, or configuration affects behavior.
+
+**Low freedom (specific scripts, few parameters)**: Use when operations are fragile and error-prone, consistency is critical, or a specific sequence must be followed.
+
+Think of Claude as exploring a path: a narrow bridge with cliffs needs specific guardrails (low freedom), while an open field allows many routes (high freedom).
+

+Every SKILL.md consists of:
+
+- **Frontmatter** (YAML): Contains `name` and `description` fields. These are the only fields that Claude reads to determine when the skill gets used, thus it is very important to be clear and comprehensive in describing what the skill is, and when it should be used.
+- **Body** (Markdown): Instructions and guidance for using the skill. Only loaded AFTER the skill triggers (if at all).
 
 #### Bundled Resources (optional)

 - **Use cases**: Templates, images, icons, boilerplate code, fonts, sample documents that get copied or modified
 - **Benefits**: Separates output resources from documentation, enables Claude to use files without loading them into context
 
+#### What to Not Include in a Skill
+
+A skill should only contain essential files that directly support its functionality. Do NOT create extraneous documentation or auxiliary files, including:
+
+- README.md
+- INSTALLATION_GUIDE.md
+- QUICK_REFERENCE.md
+- CHANGELOG.md
+- etc.
+
+The skill should only contain the information needed for an AI agent to do the job at hand. It should not contain auxilary context about the process that went into creating it, setup and testing procedures, user-facing documentation, etc. Creating additional documentation files just adds clutter and confusion.
+
 ### Progressive Disclosure Design Principle
 
 Skills use a three-level loading system to manage context efficiently:
 
 1. **Metadata (name + description)** - Always in context (~100 words)
 2. **SKILL.md body** - When skill triggers (<5k words)
-3. **Bundled resources** - As needed by Claude (Unlimited*)
+3. **Bundled resources** - As needed by Claude (Unlimited because scripts can be executed without reading into context window)
+
+#### Progressive Disclosure Patterns
+
+Keep SKILL.md body to the essentials and under 500 lines to minimize context bloat. Split content into separate files when approaching this limit. When splitting out content into other files, it is very important to reference them from SKILL.md and describe clearly when to read them, to ensure the reader of the skill knows they exist and when to use them.
+
+**Key principle:** When a skill supports multiple variations, frameworks, or options, keep only the core workflow and selection guidance in SKILL.md. Move variant-specific details (patterns, examples, configuration) into separate reference files.
+
+**Pattern 1: High-level guide with references**
+
+```markdown
+# PDF Processing
+
+## Quick start
+
+Extract text with pdfplumber:
+[code example]
+
+## Advanced features
+
+- **Form filling**: See [FORMS.md](FORMS.md) for complete guide
+- **API reference**: See [REFERENCE.md](REFERENCE.md) for all methods
+- **Examples**: See [EXAMPLES.md](EXAMPLES.md) for common patterns
+```
+
+Claude loads FORMS.md, REFERENCE.md, or EXAMPLES.md only when needed.
+
+**Pattern 2: Domain-specific organization**
+
+For Skills with multiple domains, organize content by domain to avoid loading irrelevant context:
+
+```
+bigquery-skill/
+├── SKILL.md (overview and navigation)
+└── reference/
+    ├── finance.md (revenue, billing metrics)
+    ├── sales.md (opportunities, pipeline)
+    ├── product.md (API usage, features)
+    └── marketing.md (campaigns, attribution)
+```
+
+When a user asks about sales metrics, Claude only reads sales.md.
+
+Similarly, for skills supporting multiple frameworks or variants, organize by variant:
+
+```
+cloud-deploy/
+├── SKILL.md (workflow + provider selection)
+└── references/
+    ├── aws.md (AWS deployment patterns)
+    ├── gcp.md (GCP deployment patterns)
+    └── azure.md (Azure deployment patterns)
+```
+
+When the user chooses AWS, Claude only reads aws.md.
+
+**Pattern 3: Conditional details**
+
+Show basic content, link to advanced content:
+
+```markdown
+# DOCX Processing
+
+## Creating documents
+
+Use docx-js for new documents. See [DOCX-JS.md](DOCX-JS.md).
+
+## Editing documents
+
+For simple edits, modify the XML directly.
+
+**For tracked changes**: See [REDLINING.md](REDLINING.md)
+**For OOXML details**: See [OOXML.md](OOXML.md)
+```
 
-*Unlimited because scripts can be executed without reading into context window.
+Claude reads REDLINING.md or OOXML.md only when the user needs those features.
+
+**Important guidelines:**
+
+- **Avoid deeply nested references** - Keep references one level deep from SKILL.md. All reference files should link directly from SKILL.md.
+- **Structure longer reference files** - For files longer than 100 lines, include a table of contents at the top so Claude can see the full scope when previewing.
 
 ## Skill Creation Process
 
-To create a skill, follow the "Skill Creation Process" in order, skipping steps only if there is a clear reason why they are not applicable.
+Skill creation involves these steps:
+
+1. Understand the skill with concrete examples
+2. Plan reusable skill contents (scripts, references, assets)
+3. Initialize the skill (run init_skill.py)
+4. Edit the skill (implement resources and write SKILL.md)
+5. Package the skill (run package_skill.py)
+6. Iterate based on real usage

+
+#### Learn Proven Design Patterns
+
+Consult these helpful guides based on your skill's needs:
+
+- **Multi-step processes**: See references/workflows.md for sequential workflows and conditional logic
+- **Specific output formats or quality standards**: See references/output-patterns.md for template and example patterns
+
+These files contain established best practices for effective skill design.
 
 #### Start with Reusable Skill Contents
 
 To begin implementation, start with the reusable resources identified above: `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` files. Note that this step may require user input. For example, when implementing a `brand-guidelines` skill, the user may need to provide brand assets or templates to store in `assets/`, or documentation to store in `references/`.
 
-Also, delete any example files and directories not needed for the skill. The initialization script creates example files in `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` to demonstrate structure, but most skills won't need all of them.
+Added scripts must be tested by actually running them to ensure there are no bugs and that the output matches what is expected. If there are many similar scripts, only a representative sample needs to be tested to ensure confidence that they all work while balancing time to completion.
+
+Any example files and directories not needed for the skill should be deleted. The initialization script creates example files in `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` to demonstrate structure, but most skills won't need all of them.
 
 #### Update SKILL.md
 
-**Writing Style:** Write the entire skill using **imperative/infinitive form** (verb-first instructions), not second person. Use objective, instructional language (e.g., "To accomplish X, do Y" rather than "You should do X" or "If you need to do X"). This maintains consistency and clarity for AI consumption.
+**Writing Guidelines:** Always use imperative/infinitive form.
+
+##### Frontmatter
+
+Write the YAML frontmatter with `name` and `description`:
+
+- `name`: The skill name
+- `description`: This is the primary triggering mechanism for your skill, and helps Claude understand when to use the skill.
+  - Include both what the Skill does and specific triggers/contexts for when to use it.
+  - Include all "when to use" information here - Not in the body. The body is only loaded after triggering, so "When to Use This Skill" sections in the body are not helpful to Claude.
+  - Example description for a `docx` skill: "Comprehensive document creation, editing, and analysis with support for tracked changes, comments, formatting preservation, and text extraction. Use when Claude needs to work with professional documents (.docx files) for: (1) Creating new documents, (2) Modifying or editing content, (3) Working with tracked changes, (4) Adding comments, or any other document tasks"
 
-To complete SKILL.md, answer the following questions:
+Do not include any other fields in YAML frontmatter.
 
-1. What is the purpose of the skill, in a few sentences?
-2. When should the skill be used?
-3. In practice, how should Claude use the skill? All reusable skill contents developed above should be referenced so that Claude knows how to use them.
+##### Body
+
+Write instructions for using the skill and its bundled resources.
 
 ### Step 5: Packaging a Skill

+# Output Patterns
+
+Use these patterns when skills need to produce consistent, high-quality output.
+
+## Template Pattern
+
+Provide templates for output format. Match the level of strictness to your needs.
+
+**For strict requirements (like API responses or data formats):**
+
+```markdown
+## Report structure
+
+ALWAYS use this exact template structure:
+
+# [Analysis Title]
+
+## Executive summary
+[One-paragraph overview of key findings]
+
+## Key findings
+- Finding 1 with supporting data
+- Finding 2 with supporting data
+- Finding 3 with supporting data
+
+## Recommendations
+1. Specific actionable recommendation
+2. Specific actionable recommendation
+```
+
+**For flexible guidance (when adaptation is useful):**
+
+```markdown
+## Report structure
+
+Here is a sensible default format, but use your best judgment:
+
+# [Analysis Title]
+
+## Executive summary
+[Overview]
+
+## Key findings
+[Adapt sections based on what you discover]
+
+## Recommendations
+[Tailor to the specific context]
+
+Adjust sections as needed for the specific analysis type.
+```
+
+## Examples Pattern
+
+For skills where output quality depends on seeing examples, provide input/output pairs:
+
+```markdown
+## Commit message format
+
+Generate commit messages following these examples:
+
+**Example 1:**
+Input: Added user authentication with JWT tokens
+Output:
+```
+feat(auth): implement JWT-based authentication
+
+Add login endpoint and token validation middleware
+```
+
+**Example 2:**
+Input: Fixed bug where dates displayed incorrectly in reports
+Output:
+```
+fix(reports): correct date formatting in timezone conversion
+
+Use UTC timestamps consistently across report generation
+```
+
+Follow this style: type(scope): brief description, then detailed explanation.
+```
+
+Examples help Claude understand the desired style and level of detail more clearly than descriptions alone.

+# Workflow Patterns
+
+## Sequential Workflows
+
+For complex tasks, break operations into clear, sequential steps. It is often helpful to give Claude an overview of the process towards the beginning of SKILL.md:
+
+```markdown
+Filling a PDF form involves these steps:
+
+1. Analyze the form (run analyze_form.py)
+2. Create field mapping (edit fields.json)
+3. Validate mapping (run validate_fields.py)
+4. Fill the form (run fill_form.py)
+5. Verify output (run verify_output.py)
+```
+
+## Conditional Workflows
+
+For tasks with branching logic, guide Claude through decision points:
+
+```markdown
+1. Determine the modification type:
+   **Creating new content?** → Follow "Creation workflow" below
+   **Editing existing content?** → Follow "Editing workflow" below
