SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This Skill removes the guesswork from creating or updating OpenCode skills by turning a vague idea into a complete, correctly structured skill definition.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Skill discovery and mode selection: Determines whether the request is for a brand-new skill or an update to an existing one.
  • Structured skill interview: Collects the skill’s identity, purpose, workflow, outputs, tool usage, project context, and operating rules.
  • Ready-to-use authoring: Produces a final SKILL.md with proper frontmatter, required sections, and a matching README catalog entry when needed.
  • Use case: A team member wants to add a new project-local skill for release checks and needs the full file generated in the correct repository format.

Quick Start

Use the create-skill skill to interview me for a new or existing OpenCode skill and return the finished SKILL.md plus the matching skills README row.

How do I specify MCP tools and project context when authoring an OpenCode skill?▼

You specify MCP tools and project context during the skill authoring interview by defining tool usage and project-context templating, ensuring the generated OpenCode skill operates with correct environment configurations.

Can I use this approach to build project-local skills for specific workflows like release checks?▼
