# A Grok Bot skill is a SKILL.md

## When
Use when someone is about to paste a giant prompt instead of a reusable recipe.

## Stop
Never treat a plugin or a chat prompt as the skill unit.

## Steps
1. Two required lines at the top: **name**, and **when to use it**.
2. That's the unit.

## Load
SKILL.md with name + when-to-use + steps.
