## Build / Lint / Test Commands
**Not applicable** - This is a content-only repository with no executable code.
Verify manually:
- YAML frontmatter is valid
- `name` field matches directory name exactly
- `name` is 1-64 chars, lowercase alphanumeric and hyphens only
- `description` is 1-1024 characters
## Agent Skills Specification
Skills follow the [Agent Skills spec](https://agentskills.io/specification.md).
### Required Frontmatter
```yaml
---
name: skill-name
description: What this skill does and when to use it. Include trigger phrases.
---
```
### Frontmatter Field Constraints
| Field | Required | Constraints |
|---------------|----------|------------------------------------------------------------------|
| `name` | Yes | 1-64 chars, lowercase `a-z`, numbers, hyphens. Must match dir. |
| `description` | Yes | 1-1024 chars. Describe what it does and when to use it. |
| `license` | No | License name (default: MIT) |
| `metadata` | No | Key-value pairs (author, version, etc.) |
### Name Field Rules
- Lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only
- Cannot start or end with hyphen
- No consecutive hyphens (`--`)
- Must match parent directory name exactly
**Valid**: `page-cro`, `email-sequence`, `ab-test-setup`
**Invalid**: `Page-CRO`, `-page`, `page--cro`
### Optional Skill Directories
```
skills/skill-name/
├── SKILL.md # Required - main instructions (<500 lines)
├── references/ # Optional - detailed docs loaded on demand
├── scripts/ # Optional - executable code
└── assets/ # Optional - templates, data files
```
## Writing Style Guidelines
### Structure
- Keep `SKILL.md` under 500 lines (move details to `references/`)
- Use H2 (`##`) for main sections, H3 (`###`) for subsections
- Use bullet points and numbered lists liberally
- Short paragraphs (2-4 sentences max)
### Tone
- Direct and instructional
- Second person ("You are a conversion rate optimization expert")
- Professional but approachable
### Formatting
- Bold (`**text**`) for key terms
- Code blocks for examples and templates
- Tables for reference data
- No excessive emojis
### Clarity Principles
- Clarity over cleverness
- Specific over vague
- Active voice over passive
- One idea per section
### Description Field Best Practices
The `description` is critical for skill discovery. Include:
1. What the skill does
2. When to use it (trigger phrases)
3. Related skills for scope boundaries
```yaml
description: When the user wants to optimize conversions on any marketing page. Use when the user says "CRO," "conversion rate optimization," "this page isn't converting." For signup flows, see signup-flow-cro.
```
## Claude Code Plugin
This repo also serves as a plugin marketplace. The manifest at `.claude-plugin/marketplace.json` lists all skills for installation via:
```bash
/plugin marketplace add coreyhaines31/marketingskills
/plugin install marketing-skills
```
See [Claude Code plugins documentation](https://code.claude.com/docs/en/plugins.md) for details.
## Git Workflow
### Branch Naming

- Documentation: `docs/description`
### Commit Messages

- `feat: add skill-name skill`
- `fix: improve clarity in page-cro`
- `docs: update README`
### Pull Request Checklist
- [ ] `name` matches directory name exactly
- [ ] `name` follows naming rules (lowercase, hyphens, no `--`)

# Contributing
Thanks for your interest in contributing to Marketing Skills! This guide will help you add new skills or improve existing ones.
## Requesting a Skill
You can also suggest new skills by [opening a skill request](https://github.com/coreyhaines31/marketingskills/issues/new?template=skill-request.yml).
## Adding a New Skill
### 1. Create the skill directory
```bash
mkdir -p skills/your-skill-name
```
### 2. Create the SKILL.md file
Every skill needs a `SKILL.md` file with YAML frontmatter:
```yaml
---
name: your-skill-name
description: When to use this skill. Include trigger phrases and keywords that help agents identify relevant tasks.
license: MIT
metadata:
author: "[Your Name](https://your-website.com)"
version: "1.0.0"
---
# Your Skill Name
Instructions for the agent go here...
```
### 3. Follow the naming conventions
- **Directory name**: lowercase, hyphens only (e.g., `email-sequence`)
- **Name field**: must match directory name exactly
- **Description**: 1-1024 characters, include trigger phrases
### 4. Structure your skill
```
skills/your-skill-name/
├── SKILL.md # Required - main instructions
├── references/ # Optional - additional documentation
│ └── guide.md
├── scripts/ # Optional - executable code
│ └── helper.py
└── assets/ # Optional - templates, images, data
└── template.json
```
### 5. Write effective instructions
- Keep `SKILL.md` under 500 lines
- Move detailed reference material to `references/`
- Include step-by-step instructions
- Add examples of inputs and outputs
- Cover common edge cases
## Improving Existing Skills
1. Read the existing skill thoroughly

3. Keep changes focused and minimal
4. Update the version in metadata if making significant changes
## Submitting Your Contribution
1. Fork the repository
2. Create a feature branch (`git checkout -b feat/new-skill-name`)
3. Make your changes
4. Test locally with an AI agent
5. Submit a pull request using the appropriate template:
- [New Skill](?template=new-skill.md)
- [Skill Update](?template=skill-update.md)
- [Documentation](?template=documentation.md)
## Skill Quality Checklist
- [ ] `name` matches directory name
- [ ] `description` clearly explains when to use the skill
