System Documentation

What problem does it solve?

This Skill provides a standardized template for creating new Anvil skills so that discovery, lifecycle commands, review/critique contracts, and directory layout work consistently.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Skill frontmatter + identity fields: Defines a discoverable skill entry with name, description, domain, and artifact type placeholders.
  • Lifecycle command scaffold: Establishes draft, review, revise, and audit command responsibilities and the expected read/write artifacts per phase.
  • Load-bearing review contract guidance: Specifies the canonical _review.json schema requirements and how verdict aggregation and revision should consume them.

Quick Start

Copy anvil/templates/README.md and anvil/templates/SKILL.md, replace every placeholder like <type> with your artifact type, then place the result as the root SKILL.md for your new skill directory.
