The Skill Creator provides a structured framework and templates to help teams design, implement, and package OpenHands skills consistently, reducing ambiguity and ensuring reusable patterns across skills.
Initialize a new skill with the Skill Initializer: python3 scripts/init_skill.py <skill-name> --path <path>
High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.
To create an OpenHands skill, run `python3 scripts/init_skill.py <skill-name> --path <path>` to scaffold the directory structure. You then define frontmatter with name and description, populate SKILL.md, and organize reusable resources into scripts, references, and assets folders.
The required frontmatter schema for SKILL.md mandates two fields: name and description. These fields define the skill's identity and purpose, ensuring consistent structured blueprints across packaged OpenHands skills.
Organize scripts, references, and assets into dedicated top-level directories within your skill package. This modular resource pattern supports progressive disclosure, keeping SKILL.md focused while allowing the skill to load auxiliary components as needed.
Yes, PyYAML is a required dependency for packaging OpenHands skills. The environment needs PyYAML installed to parse and validate the required frontmatter schema defined in the SKILL.md file during initialization.
Progressive disclosure is a best practice for skill design that structures SKILL.md to guide practitioners incrementally. It separates the core frontmatter and quick start instructions from deeper modular resources like scripts, references, and assets.
