skill-creator

To create a Claude skill, run the init_skill.py script to scaffold a new project directory containing a standardized SKILL.md frontmatter template and optional bundled resource folders for scripts, references, and assets.

Package a Claude skill by running the quick_validate.py script to check metadata quality and structure, then execute package_skill.py to bundle the SKILL.md and its bundled resources into a distributable format.

Organize bundled resources by placing executable code in the scripts directory, documentation in references, and static media in assets, ensuring the SKILL.md frontmatter accurately maps to these optional bundled components.

Validation is required before packaging to ensure skill structure and metadata quality meet standards, preventing packaging errors by catching missing frontmatter fields or malformed resource paths early via quick_validate.py.

Updating an existing skill is supported by the template, allowing you to modify the SKILL.md frontmatter and add or adjust bundled resources like scripts and references, then re-validate and re-package the skill directory.

The template standardizes SKILL.md frontmatter and bundled resource organization but operates at an intermediate implementation depth, meaning complex custom initialization logic may require manual modifications beyond the provided scripts.
