Two Patterns — Pick One

A skill is either a Standalone Skill or a Routed Skill. These are mutually exclusive. Never mix them.

Decision rule: Does this skill cover multiple distinct sub-topics, each needing their own instruction file? If yes → Routed Skill. If no → Standalone Skill.

When in doubt, start with a Standalone Skill.

Pattern 1: Standalone Skill

A single SKILL.md file. No rules/ directory.

Use when the skill covers one focused topic that fits in a single file.
