What problem does it solve?
Skill authoring ensures Agent Skills are built correctly the first time by requiring failing-test baselines and enforcing specification-compliant structure so skills are discoverable, efficient, and dependable.
Core Features & Use Cases
- TDD-based skill lifecycle: Capture a baseline failure (RED), implement the minimal skill that makes it pass (GREEN), then refactor without breaking compliance (REFACTOR).
- Specification compliance auditing: Validate required YAML frontmatter fields, enforce “Use when...” trigger-style descriptions, and require key sections like ## Overview and ## When to Use.
- Duplicate detection & quality control: Identify redundant skills by name/purpose/overlap, and keep the best version while merging improvements and removing inferior duplicates.
- Operational readiness checklist: Verify directory/name matching, efficiency (word-count guidance), and scenario pass/fail before deployment.
Quick Start
Ask an AI to audit your existing skill directory against SKILL.md frontmatter requirements, required sections, naming alignment, and duplicate risk, then propose the smallest compliant changes.
