What problem does it solve?
The Skill Creator provides a structured, boilerplate-driven workflow to design, initialize, and package Gemini Skills, reducing repetitive setup and ensuring consistent scaffolds across skills.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Scaffolding: Auto-generates SKILL.md, resource folders (scripts, references, assets), and example files to jump-start skill development.
- Validation & Packaging: Includes scripts to validate skills and generate distributable .skill archives for easy sharing.
- Best Practices: Embeds templates and guidelines to keep skills concise, safe, and modular for team collaboration.
Quick Start
Run the initializer to create a new skill scaffold, customize SKILL.md and bundled resources, then package the skill for distribution.
- Run: node scripts/init_skill.cjs <skill-name> --path <output-dir>
- Edit SKILL.md and add any references/assets as needed
- Run: node scripts/package_skill.cjs <path-to-skill> [<output-dir>]
