What is a Claude skill?
A reusable promptsaved as a file
Every time you re-explain your brand voice, re-paste your tone guidelines, or re-describe your research style ~ that is time you should not be spending. A skill captures all of that once, in a .md file, and makes it permanently available to Claude.
Skills are not chatbot system prompts. They are structured documents with a name, a description, and a set of instructions Claude follows whenever that skill is active. You write them once. Claude uses them forever.
--- name: my-brand-voice description: "Enforces brand tone on all written output. Use whenever writing emails, social posts, or copy." --- # My Brand Voice You are writing as [Business Name]. ## Tone Direct, warm, no corporate jargon. Short paragraphs. Use ~ instead of dashes. End emails with a signature. ## Do - Lead with the point - Use real examples, not vague generalisations ## Don't - No passive voice - Never say"leverage" or"synergy" ## Voice Sample [3 example sentences from actual writing]
Two ways to use skills
Claude CodevsClaude.ai
Claude Code
CLI ~ Developer Setup
Claude Code is the command-line tool you run inside VS Code or your terminal. Skills live as .md files in your repo and are invoked with slash commands. They live in git, version-controlled alongside your code.
How to install
Save the file
Create a skills/ folder inside .claude/ at the root of your project. Save your generated .md file there.
Reference it in CLAUDE.md
Add a Skill line to your CLAUDE.md file. Claude Code will load it automatically at the start of every session.
Invoke with a slash command
Type /brand-voice in Claude Code to activate the skill for that session. Or set it to always-on in CLAUDE.md.
Best for
Developers and builders working in VS Code
Teams who want shared, version-controlled skills
Workflows that run alongside code changes
Claude.ai
Web App ~ No Code Needed
Claude.ai is the web and mobile interface at claude.ai. Skills work here through Projects ~ a Claude.ai feature that gives conversations persistent instructions. Paste your skill file as a Project instruction and it is always active.
How to install
Create a Project
Open Claude.ai → click Projects in the sidebar → New Project. Give it a name matching the skill (e.g. Brand Voice).
Add as Project instructions
Inside the Project → click Set instructions. Paste the full contents of your generated skill file. Save.
Every chat in the project uses it
Any conversation you start inside this Project will have the skill active automatically. No slash command needed.
Best for
Non-developers and content creators
