Why
Enterprise rollout feedback kept returning to the same three questions, and we had no documentation for any of them:
What
Three short pages in the existing house style (
title/descriptionfrontmatter, 10–30 lines, numbered steps, backticked UI paths), registered indocs.json:start-here/do-work-with-it/skills-plugins-and-mcp.mdxstart-here/do-work-with-it/create-a-skill-from-chat.mdxstart-here/do-work-with-it/publish-and-copy-a-skill.mdxFree win: the create-a-skill page uses screenshots that were already committed at
packages/docs/images/skill-import-*.pngand referenced by no page.Also fixed
share-your-setup.mdxtold readers to openWorkspace -> Skills, a surface that no longer exists. Corrected to the live inventory (Settings > Extensions) and cross-linked to the new publish page.Verification
docs.jsonparses; all five new/changed page paths resolve to real files on disk.ls.53e0e1d11), and desktop marketplace creation/forking (the desktop app is read-only for marketplaces).Docs-only, no runtime path — no fraimz.
