# Claude Skills Market

## Purpose
Claude Skills Market is the premier community marketplace for discovering, sharing, and commissioning Claude AI skills. It connects skill builders (developers, domain experts, AI enthusiasts) with professionals and teams who need specialized Claude capabilities. Skill engineering — the discipline of creating structured, reusable AI skills — is the evolution of prompt engineering, and this marketplace is where it happens.

## What is a Claude Skill?
A Claude skill is a reusable set of instructions, examples, templates, and domain knowledge that transforms Claude from a generalist into a specialist for a specific task or workflow. Unlike one-off prompts, skills are portable, structured, and designed to be loaded into Claude Apps, Claude API, or Claude Code.
