### 导出副本边界与技能别名
迁移、安装、修复和经验回写只作用于当前加载的目标宿主技能副本。原 Codex 技能/MCP、下载的源码和 `original-skills` 均为来源材料,不因执行本副本而写入;只有用户另行明确要求配置 Codex 产品本身时,才按该产品流程处理指定目标。脚本需要安装目录或状态目录时,显式提供目标路径;不得从 `CODEX_HOME` 隐式推断写入位置。
跨技能名称可能沿用源库别名。先查 [技能别名表](../../skill-aliases.json),优先选择同来源、同插件的条目,再使用其 `id` 调用或读取对应入口;不得假定旧 `$skill`、`superpowers:skill` 名称在新宿主直接注册。不能确定目标时先核对,不替换真实产品命令或 Shell 环境变量。
## 跨宿主使用约定
本副本供支持 Agent Skills 的客户端使用。先检查当前宿主实际提供的工具、权限和已连接服务,再执行正文工作流。原文中的宿主工具标识是能力参考;只有实际发现该工具时才可调用,其他宿主应使用经核验的等价 MCP、CLI 或 API。没有等价能力的步骤必须报告不可用,不能虚构调用或完成状态。
技能资源以本技能目录为基准;输出写入当前项目中用户指定的位置。通过技能名称或自然语言触发,具体快捷命令由宿主决定。涉及真实产品、模型 API、协议字段和官方网址的名称保持原意。授权、审批、隐私和工具范围限制在迁移后仍然有效;不得为兼容而扩大权限。具体依赖与迁移说明见同目录 `PORTABILITY.md`。
# Example Skill
This skill demonstrates the structure and format for Claude Code plugin skills.
## Overview
Skills are model-invoked capabilities that Claude autonomously uses based on task context. Unlike commands (user-invoked) or agents (spawned by Claude), skills provide contextual guidance that Claude incorporates into its responses.
## When This Skill Applies
This skill activates when the user's request involves:
- Creating or understanding plugin skills
- Skill template or reference needs
- Skill development patterns
## Skill Structure
### Required Files
```
skills/
└── skill-name/
└── SKILL.md # Main skill definition (required)
```
### Optional Supporting Files
```
skills/
└── skill-name/
├── SKILL.md # Main skill definition
├── README.md # Additional documentation
├── references/ # Reference materials
│ └── patterns.md
├── examples/ # Example files
│ └── sample.md
└── scripts/ # Helper scripts
└── helper.sh
```
## Frontmatter Options
Skills support these frontmatter fields:
- **name** (required): Skill identifier
- **description** (required): Trigger conditions - describe when Claude should use this skill
- **version** (optional): Semantic version number
- **license** (optional): License information or reference
## Writing Effective Descriptions
The description field is crucial - it tells Claude when to invoke the skill.
**Good description patterns:**
```yaml
description: This skill should be used when the user asks to "specific phrase", "another phrase", mentions "keyword", or discusses topic-area.
```
**Include:**
- Specific trigger phrases users might say
- Keywords that indicate relevance
- Topic areas the skill covers
## Skill Content Guidelines
1. **Clear purpose**: State what the skill helps with
2. **When to use**: Define activation conditions
3. **Structured guidance**: Organize information logically
4. **Actionable instructions**: Provide concrete steps
5. **Examples**: Include practical examples when helpful
## Best Practices
- Keep skills focused on a single domain
- Write descriptions that clearly indicate when to activate
- Include reference materials in subdirectories for complex skills
- Test that the skill activates for expected queries
- Avoid overlap with other skills' trigger conditions
