skill-template

To create marketplace-ready skills with config-code separation, use a template-based directory structure that isolates configuration from scripts. This ensures modularity and maintainability without altering core code.

Config-code separation in skill authoring is the practice of isolating configuration data from executable scripts. It ensures skills remain modular and easily configurable across various Hermes agents without requiring code modifications.

You structure a skill template for the marketplace by copying a template directory containing scripts, references, and assets. This standardized setup includes user-friendly frontmatter with mandatory fields in SKILL.md.

Yes, you can use skill-template to make reusable skills for Hermes agents. It is specifically designed to help skill authors develop configurable skills that operate across various Hermes agent environments.

Skill authoring requires config-code separation to maintain modularity and reusability. By decoupling configuration from code, authors can update settings without altering scripts, ensuring long-term maintainability across deployments.

The main limitation of using a template for skill authoring is that it provides an intermediate-level framework. Authors must still manually implement custom logic and ensure the directory structure aligns with their specific marketplace requirements.
