What is Claude Skills?

A Skill is a small instruction file that teaches Claude Code how to be an expert at a specific task. Think of skills like hiring a specialist: instead of explaining CRO best practices every time, a /page-cro skill already knows the frameworks, metrics, and techniques. Skills are free, open-source, and run 100% locally on your computer. Install once, use forever.
