Report_final_v2_FINAL_johns-edits(2).docx is a filesystem crying for grammar. A working convention is small — date first in ISO form so files sort themselves, a few descriptor slots in fixed order, a version rule that bans "final" — and it's enforced by usefulness: names that sort chronologically and surface in search within seconds pay their own adoption. The convention fits on one line; everything longer goes unused.
Filename Convention is a community-contributed Claude Code skill in the general-misc sub-category. It ships as a SKILL.md file that Claude Code auto-discovers under ~/.claude/skills/filename-convention/ and loads when your prompt matches the skill's trigger.
When to invoke it: Use when asked set up file naming rules, our filenames are chaos, what should we call our files, or fix the v2-final-FINAL problem. Produces the convention with its grammar, examples for the team's real file types, the version rule, and the one-line cheat sheet.
The Filename Convention Claude Code skill is built for Claude Code users and developers across all disciplines looking for general-purpose AI assistance. It's part of ClaudSkills (also referred to as Claude Skills or Claude Code Skills) — the open community-curated registry of 174,000+ SKILL.md files for Anthropic's Claude Code agent and the wider Claude ecosystem (Claude API, Claude Agent SDK).
