What problem does it solve?
This Skill provides a guided template and process to create new Agent Skills by generating compliant SKILL.md entries that are orthogonal, well-structured, and aligned with Claude's best practices.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Guided Frontmatter: Ensures every Skill includes a valid YAML frontmatter with name and description, plus optional tooling constraints.
- Consistent Structure: Enforces a concise core purpose, activation triggers, slash-command pattern, and optional supporting files.
- Activation & Validation: Maps activation phrases and validates skill structure to enable rapid, repeatable skill creation.
Quick Start
Create a new skill named 'my-skill' by starting from the template in this repository, filling in frontmatter, activation criteria, and a basic slash command. Add any required supporting files under scripts/ or references/ as needed.
