What problem does it solve?

The Skill creation process is often manual and error-prone; this tool automates scaffolding of skill units with a standardized SKILL.md frontmatter and resource directories, ensuring consistency across Claude skills.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Guided initialization: Provides example scripts and references to guide early development and validation.
  • Packaging-ready: Integrates with quick_validate.py and package_skill.py to validate and package skills for distribution.

Quick Start

Run init_skill.py with your skill name and --path to scaffold a new skill template, then customize SKILL.md and add resources.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate scaffolding for a new Claude skill template?▼

Automate skill creation by running init_skill.py with a skill name and --path to generate standardized SKILL.md frontmatter alongside scripts/, references/, and assets/ directories.

What is the standard folder structure for packaging modular skills?▼

The standard structure requires a SKILL.md file with frontmatter, supplemented by scripts/, references/, and assets/ folders to ensure development consistency and accelerate deployment.

Do I need PyYAML to generate SKILL.md frontmatter?▼

What's the best way to validate a skill before distribution?▼

Validate skills for distribution by running quick_validate.py to check structural integrity, then use package_skill.py to bundle the standardized folders into a distributable format.

Can I customize the example scripts and references after scaffolding?▼

Yes, after the template generates initial example scripts and references to guide early development, you can fully customize SKILL.md and add specific resources to fit your workflow.
