# Create Instruction Skill

## Purpose

Use this skill to create or refine instruction files that define stable team standards.

## Inputs

- Target file scope (`applyTo`).
- Desired behavior rules and quality checks.
- Existing conventions that must be preserved.

## Workflow

1. Identify where the instruction should apply.
2. Draft frontmatter with specific `applyTo` and `description`.
3. Draft purpose, rules, and validation checklist sections.
4. Ensure no overlap or contradiction with existing instructions.
5. Keep content concise and implementation-neutral.

## Output

- A complete `.instructions.md` file in Markdown.
