# Create New Skill Workflow
## Trigger
User says: "create a new skill", "build a skill for", "add a skill"
## Purpose
Create a new skill from scratch following PAI/Anthropic standards.
## Workflow
### 1. Define Skill Purpose
Ask user:
- What does this skill do?
- When should it activate?
- What tools/commands will it use?
- Simple or complex?
### 2. Choose Structure
**Simple Skill** (single SKILL.md):
```
skills/skill-name/
└── SKILL.md
```
**Complex Skill** (with workflows):
```
skills/skill-name/
├── SKILL.md
└── workflows/
├── workflow-1.md
└── workflow-2.md
```
### 3. Create SKILL.md
```markdown
---
name: skill-name
description: Clear description with USE WHEN triggers
---
# Skill Name
