SKILLS

Slash commands with structured instructions.

A skill is a folder with SKILL.md plus scripts plus prompts. Claude reads it when you invoke it.

It is teaching a pattern once and using it forever. The Sapiens skills (/quote, /pop-article, /pipeline) live in skills/ and each one is a specialist agent of the editorial flow.

When you want to distill operational knowledge into a reusable, portable format, a skill is the right container.
