Publishing checklist: ten minutes to live

Publishing is deliberately boring. If you have a working SKILL.md, the distance to a live listing is one short checklist.

• Claim your handle — it goes on every card you ever publish.
• Name the skill with a verb and cap it at 27 characters.
• Write the one-liner as if it costs you a dollar a word.
• Paste the file. We lint the frontmatter while you type.
• Publish. The listing is live and the curve starts at zero — where every good curve starts.

That's the whole ceremony. The ten minutes are mostly you re-reading your description, which is time well spent.
