Summary
If you're building skills for Claude or other agents and tired of validation errors, missing metadata, or bloated instructions, this handles the scaffolding. It spins up new skills with the right folder structure, generates agent YAML files from explicit parameters, validates frontmatter and dependencies, and packages everything into a distributable zip. The workflow pushes you toward focused, triggerable skills with short SKILL.md files and detailed references tucked away. It's opinionated about keeping things minimal and mechanically correct, which is exactly what you want when you're maintaining more than a couple of these.

Skill Creator
Design or refactor skills so they are small, triggerable, and mechanically valid.
Workflow
- Define the exact user requests that should trigger the skill.
- Keep
SKILL.mdshort and put deep detail inreferences/. - Add only the scripts, assets, or references that make execution materially more reliable.
- Generate
agents/openai.yamland validate before packaging.
Scripts
scripts/init_skill.pyinitializes a new skill with optional resource folders andagents/openai.yaml.scripts/generate_openai_yaml.pywritesagents/openai.yamlfrom explicit interface values.scripts/quick_validate.pyenforces strict frontmatter, directory naming, agent metadata, and script dependency rules.scripts/package_skill.pyvalidates first, then zips the skill for distribution.
Rules
- Keep frontmatter to
nameanddescriptiononly. - Make
descriptiondo the trigger work: what the skill does and when to use it. - Match the folder name exactly to
name. - Prefer one focused workflow over a kitchen-sink skill.
- Remove placeholder files and generic boilerplate before publishing.
