SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

This skill eliminates the tedious manual work of auditing your Claude skill library after a work session, automatically flagging outdated skills and identifying new reusable workflows so you never have to manually track skill maintenance again.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Stale Skill Detection: Automatically flags skills with outdated URLs, version references, unresolved open questions, or missing artifacts based on activity in your current session.
  • New Skill Candidate Identification: Identifies repeatable multi-step workflows that took 5+ tool calls to complete and don't have an existing skill, drafting a full proposal for each.
  • Session Index Updates: Automatically adds new session entries to relevant skill session indexes when work matching the skill's scope is completed.
  • Use Case: After a session where you used the pretty-page skill to upload 3 new HTML reports and discovered a new repeatable report formatting workflow, this skill will flag the pretty-page skill for a URL update and propose a new pretty-report skill for the formatting workflow.

Quick Start

Run the upskill skill at the end of any work session to automatically scan for outdated skills and new reusable workflows to add to your Claude skill library.
