SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Ensures Titan Agent skills are authored in a way that passes the repo validator, is discoverable, and loads reliably by providing the exact required SKILL.md frontmatter and structure.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Valid SKILL.md authoring: Defines the required YAML frontmatter constraints (must include name and description, description length limit, and correct file formatting rules).
  • In-repo workflow guidance: Clarifies how to create vs patch skills and when to use write_file versus skill_manage, specifically for committed skills under skills/.
  • Peer-matched structure and verification: Recommends a consistent section layout and provides a checklist to catch common mistakes before committing.

Quick Start

Use the titan-agent-skill-authoring skill to create a new in-repo skill at skills/<category>/<name>/SKILL.md by writing a correctly formatted YAML frontmatter with a clear, trigger-based description and then following the recommended sections order.

Frequently Asked Questions about titan-agent-skill-authoring

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
What is the required YAML frontmatter for a SKILL.md file?▼

The required YAML frontmatter for a SKILL.md file must include name and description fields enclosed in delimiters. The description must adhere to a specified length limit to pass the repo validator.

How do I create an in-repo skill under skills/<category>/<name>/SKILL.md?▼

To create an in-repo skill, write a correctly formatted SKILL.md file with valid YAML frontmatter and a non-empty operational body. Use write_file for new skills or skill_manage to patch existing committed skills.

Why does my SKILL.md fail the repo validator during skill authoring?▼

Skill authoring fails the repo validator when SKILL.md files have missing YAML frontmatter fields, incorrect delimiters, descriptions exceeding length constraints, or an empty operational body.

What sections should I include when authoring a software-development skill?▼

Authoring a software-development skill requires a consistent section layout matched to peer conventions. The file must contain a non-empty operational body with actionable content following the YAML frontmatter.

When should I use write_file versus skill_manage for in-repo workflows?▼

Use write_file when creating a new in-repo skill at skills/<category>/<name>/SKILL.md. Use skill_manage when you need to patch or edit an existing committed skill to apply updates.

Is there a verification checklist for SKILL.md formatting constraints?▼

Yes, a verification checklist catches common SKILL.md formatting mistakes before committing. It validates frontmatter delimiters, required fields, description length, and the presence of an operational body.
