What problem does it solve?

This Skill enforces consistent standards for AI agent definitions, ensuring clarity, maintainability, and discoverability across all agents.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Frontmatter Validation: Ensures required fields like name and description are present and correctly formatted.
  • Naming Conventions: Enforces kebab-case for agent names and filenames, matching them precisely.
  • README Indexing: Guides the process of updating README.md files to include new or modified agents, keeping documentation current.
  • Use Case: When creating a new agent for API design, this skill will automatically check that its filename is api-designer.md, its name in the frontmatter is api-designer, and that it's added to the agents/README.md index.

Quick Start

Use the agent-conventions skill to validate the frontmatter of a new agent definition.
