FAQPage Schema

How do I generate a markdown inventory of all deployed skills?▼

To generate a markdown inventory of deployed skills, run the catalogue script against your skills directory. It indexes each SKILL.md to extract metadata and outputs a deterministic skill-inventory.md file for quick discovery and documentation sharing.

What is the best way to create a browsable HTML catalogue from SKILL.md files?▼

Creating a browsable HTML catalogue from SKILL.md files is done by running the generation script, which parses frontmatter and body content to derive summaries, producing a stable catalog/index.html output for easy team sharing.

Does the skill catalogue generator require frontmatter tags in SKILL.md files?▼

Yes, the skill catalogue generator requires frontmatter tags as a dependency. It relies on the SKILL.md frontmatter to derive metadata like name, challenge, and solution, ensuring the generated markdown and HTML outputs remain accurate and current.

Can I automatically refresh documentation after adding a new skill to the library?▼

You can automatically refresh documentation after adding a new skill by running the catalogue generation script. It regenerates both the markdown inventory and HTML catalogue in a deterministic workflow, ensuring teams can discover newly added capabilities at a glance.

What limitations exist when indexing deployed skills with SKILL.md files?▼

A key limitation when indexing deployed skills is that the catalogue relies entirely on the presence and structure of SKILL.md frontmatter. If frontmatter tags are missing or malformed, the script cannot accurately derive the metadata needed for the markdown and HTML outputs.
