How skills work in Gemini CLI
A skill is a folder containing a SKILL.md file: YAML frontmatter with a name and a one-line description, followed by step-by-step instructions, checklists and an output format. Gemini CLI reads the description to decide when the skill applies, then loads the full instructions only when needed — so skills add capability without eating your context window.
