skill-creator

Skill creation uses a structured SKILL.md template with required frontmatter fields (name, description) and optional directories (scripts/, references/, assets/). The skill-creator generates this scaffolding to enforce consistency across skill units and accelerate development from initial setup through validation.

Frontmatter requires name and description fields. Optional resource directories include scripts/ for automation, references/ for documentation, and assets/ for supporting files. This organization pattern applies across workflow-based, task-based, reference, and capabilities-based skill designs.

Yes. The skill-creator provides starter templates and guided workflows that outline recommended patterns for organizing skills. These templates reduce onboarding time and ensure consistent structure when extending agent capabilities across different skill types.

Skill creation supports four organizational patterns: workflow-based (sequential steps), task-based (discrete actions), reference/guidelines (documentation-heavy), and capabilities-based (feature definitions). Templates guide selection based on your skill's primary function.

The standardized frontmatter and starter templates lower entry barriers. The skill-creator provides a repeatable blueprint that handles scaffolding, so you focus on core logic rather than structure. No specialized prerequisites are required beyond familiarity with your skill's domain.
