skill-builder

Use the skill-builder to convert your prompt and documentation into a structured SKILL.md file. The builder guides you through naming conventions (lowercase with hyphens, max 64 characters), frontmatter validation, required sections like Purpose and Process, and generates accompanying templates, scripts, and validation utilities before deployment.

Skill names must be lowercase with hyphens and not exceed 64 characters; descriptions are limited to 1024 characters. The skill-builder enforces these frontmatter rules and validates compliance before you finalize the SKILL.md file.

Required sections include Purpose, When to Use, Process, Output Format, Best Practices, Examples, and Error Handling. The skill-builder provides templates for each section and ensures your skill includes all mandatory components.

Yes. The skill-builder generates a base SKILL.md that you can customize. It includes accompanying README, scripts, and materials templates to adapt for your specific use case while maintaining production-ready structure and validation.

The skill-builder includes validation and testing steps as part of the creation flow. It checks frontmatter constraints, required sections, and best practices enforcement to catch issues before deployment.

The skill-builder supports both personal and project scope applications. Both scopes follow the same SKILL.md structure, frontmatter rules, and validation standards; scope determines where the skill is deployed and accessed.
