SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill standardizes and accelerates the creation of new Skills by providing a ready-to-use directory structure, frontmatter template, and packaging steps that conform to the agentskills.io specification.

Core Features & Use Cases

Template-driven SKILL.md: Generates a valid skill_name/SKILL.md with required frontmatter.
Validation & Packaging: Checks directory naming conventions and builds a ready zip for artifact publishing.
Use Case: A contributor wants to add a new Skill named 'parse-terraform-state' and needs a conforming skeleton and packaging workflow.

Quick Start

Create a new directory named parse-terraform-state and run the scaffold to generate skill files, then run the packaging workflow to produce skill-parse-terraform-state.zip.
