Example Command (Skill Format)

This demonstrates the skills/<name>/SKILL.md layout for user-invoked slash commands. It is functionally identical to the legacy commands/example-command.md format — both are loaded the same way; only the file layout differs.

Arguments

The user invoked this with: $ARGUMENTS

Instructions

When this skill is invoked:

  • Parse the arguments provided by the user
  • Perform the requested action using allowed tools
  • Report results back to the user

Frontmatter Options Reference

Skills in this layout support these frontmatter fields:

  • name: Skill identifier (matches directory name)
  • description: Short description shown in /help
  • argument-hint: Hints for command arguments shown to user
  • allowed-tools: Pre-approved tools for this skill (reduces permission prompts)
  • model: Override the model (e.g., "haiku", "sonnet", "opus")

Example Usage

/example-command my-argument
/example-command arg1 arg2

Doca Erasure Coding
by NVIDIA
vendor

> Use this skill when the user is doing hands-on DOCA Erasure Coding programming on a BlueField DPU, ConnectX NIC, or host — bringing up a doca_ec context, picking among the create / recover / update tasks, choosing matrix type / N / K / block size, querying doca_ec_cap_* before sizing, setting doca_mmap src/dst permissions, or debugging DOCA_ERROR_* returns from doca_ec_task_*. Trigger even when the user does not name "DOCA Erasure Coding" or "Reed-Solomon" — typical implicit phrasings include "one data block changed, how do I refresh parity without re-encoding", "a disk failed and 2 parity blocks are gone, can I rebuild", "RAID-6 resilience across 12 disks", "my doca_ec_task_create returns NOT_PERMITTED", or "is this N+K layout still recoverable". Refuse and route elsewhere for non-Reed-Solomon codes (fountain / LDPC / raptor), pure-replication designs, network FEC, or other DOCA accelerator libraries (SHA / Compress / AES-GCM / DMA) — those belong to other skills.

Setup Sso UI Widget
by microsoft
vendor

> Adds Microsoft Entra SSO (single sign-on, no OBO) to a Microsoft 365 Copilot declarative readiness_plugin.json (or another *_plugin.json with a runtimes[] block) and an EXPRESS-based appPackage/mcpPlugin.json and a raw-http MCP server. When the layout is ambiguous, DEFAULT to the MCP Apps standard (most projects use it). The skill auto-detects the layout, reuses the existing named devtunnel + env/.env.local (never creates a second tunnel), registers the Entra app + ATK OAuth (MicrosoftEntra), patches the plugin manifest's runtimes[] auth to OAuthPluginVault, injects a minimal JWKS bearer-token guard into the existing server (an EXPRESS middleware for MCP Apps, or a raw-http guard WITHOUT rewriting to Express for OAI Apps), validates, sideloads, and prints an app-registration summary. SSO only — no OBO. "setup sso for mcp apps", "add sso after create-mcp-app", "add sso after ui-widget-developer", "add entra auth to my express mcp server", "configure only sso no obo"

How to use it

Copy the folder

Take anthropics/example-command from the repository into ~/.claude/skills for personal use, or into .claude/skills inside a project.

Check the name does not clash

The agent identifies a skill by the name field in its header. Two skills with the same name cannot sit side by side — one of them will be ignored.
