qclaw-skill-creator

To create modular QClaw skills, use the qclaw-skill-creator to bundle specialized knowledge, procedural steps, or tool integrations into a SKILL.md file with optional scripts, references, and assets directories to keep responsibilities separated.

The correct SKILL.md frontmatter schema requires specific YAML metadata fields to initialize and validate your QClaw skill, ensuring the directory structure passes packaging validation before deployment.

To package a QClaw skill, run the package_skill.py script after editing your SKILL.md and optional component directories, which validates the required frontmatter schema and ensures the correct directory structure for deployment.

To initialize a new QClaw skill directory structure, run the init_skill.py script, which sets up the foundational SKILL.md file and the optional scripts, references, and assets folders required for skill design and packaging.

Context optimization in skill authoring involves using concise context usage and selecting the correct degrees of freedom within your SKILL.md to ensure robust, predictable behavior without overwhelming the workflow.

You can update an existing QClaw skill by editing the SKILL.md file and its associated scripts or references, then running package_skill.py to validate the modified directory structure and frontmatter schema before repackaging.
