Install as Claude Skill?

[pdmhenry-creator]

When I try to add the zip file to Claude to upload it as a skill, I get an error message that says "Zip cannot contain nested zip files" - anyone know how to resolve this?

Claude Skills don’t support ZIP files that contain another ZIP file. Try extracting the outer ZIP first, then check the extracted folder for any nested .zip files. Remove/extract those nested ZIPs and create a new ZIP containing the actual skill files and folders. Then upload that new ZIP to Claude.

Also make sure the ZIP doesn’t contain unnecessary archive files such as another .zip, .tar, or similar packaged archive.
