Expertise Distiller: Principle-Driven Skill Design
This skill guides you through creating skills that transfer expertise, not just list instructions.
The 4 Core Truths
Every skill you create must embody these principles:
| Truth | What It Means | In Practice |
|---|---|---|
| Expertise Transfer, Not Instructions | Make Claude think like an expert, not follow steps | Teach mental models and decision frameworks, not checklists |
| Flow, Not Friction | Produce output, not intermediate documents | Go straight to deliverables - no "now write a plan" steps |
| Voice Matches Domain | Sound like a practitioner, not documentation | Use domain language naturally, avoid meta-commentary |
| Focused Beats Comprehensive | Constrain ruthlessly | Every section must justify its token cost |
