What problem does it solve?

Creating new Skill units manually is time-consuming and error-prone; this tool standardizes scaffolds so every Skill starts with correct frontmatter, directory structure, and optional resources.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Generates a complete Skill scaffold from a short prompt.
  • Enforces required frontmatter fields (name and description) and a consistent folder layout.
  • Supports optional resource folders (scripts, references, assets) and starter examples for quick iteration.
  • Produces ready-to-package Skill content suitable for validation and deployment.

Quick Start

Run the scaffold script with your parameters to generate a new skill directory.

How do I generate a skill scaffold from a short prompt automatically?▼

Generating a skill scaffold from a short prompt involves running an automation script that outputs a standardized folder layout with validated frontmatter and starter examples for immediate iteration.

What is the best way to standardize frontmatter validation for new skill packaging?▼

Can I use a skill generator to enforce a consistent folder layout across multiple deployments?▼

You can use a skill generator to enforce a consistent folder layout across multiple deployments. It standardizes the directory structure and frontmatter fields across all generated units for reliable deployment.

Why does manual skill creation fail frontmatter validation during deployment?▼

Manual skill creation fails frontmatter validation during deployment because of missing required fields like name and description. The scaffold generator prevents these errors by enforcing valid frontmatter during creation.
