FAQPage Schema
How do I automate MARVIN skill scaffolding from a user request?

MARVIN skill scaffolding is automated by generating a complete SKILL.md template with metadata, including name, description, category, and triggers, directly from a user prompt. This streamlines capability onboarding by creating the necessary skill directory structure.

What is included in a generated MARVIN SKILL.md template?

A generated SKILL.md template includes essential metadata fields such as the skill name, description, category, triggers, and invocability settings. It also scaffolds optional directories for scripts, references, and assets alongside the main template.

How do I quickly onboard a new capability into the MARVIN skill index?

To onboard a new capability, provide a user request to scaffold the skill. The automation generates the SKILL.md template, creates optional directories like scripts and assets, and registers an entry in the Skill Index to expand the catalog.

Do I need to manually configure triggers and metadata when creating a new skill?

Manual configuration is not required for triggers and metadata. The skill creation process provides guided configuration to define these elements in a consistent format automatically, ensuring the skill is properly set up.

Can I generate optional directories for scripts and references during skill creation?

Yes, you can generate optional directories for scripts, references, and assets. The scaffolding process creates these folders alongside the SKILL.md template to support the new skill's structure and resources.
