SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve? It captures workflows, conventions, and task instructions from a conversation and turns them into persistent, reusable skills so future agent instances can repeat the same process without re-explanation. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Guided Skill Authoring: Walks through intent capture, naming rules, frontmatter requirements, and directory structure for new skills. - Writing Standards: Enforces description-driven triggering, progressive disclosure, and the 500-line SKILL.md limit with reference file overflow. - Use Case: After refining a deployment checklist in conversation, ask to save it as a skill so every future session triggers the same checklist when you mention deploying or going live. ## Quick Start Turn the workflow we just completed into a reusable skill saved under .agents/skills.

Frequently Asked Questions about skill-creator

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

FAQPage Schema
How do I create a reusable skill for an AI agent?▼

Write a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter containing a name and description, followed by Markdown instructions. Save it to .agents/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md and confirm the trigger conditions with the user before finishing.

What should a skill description include to trigger reliably?▼

The description must state both what the skill does and when to use it, including explicit trigger phrases and scenarios. Vague descriptions like 'Handles deployment' under-trigger; specific ones listing user phrases work reliably.

Where are custom skills stored on disk?▼

User-created skills go in .agents/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md and can be freely modified or deleted. Platform-provided skills live in .local/skills/ and are read-only.

What are the naming rules for a new skill?▼

Skill names must be lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens only, with a maximum of 64 characters. Examples include deploy-checklist and api-conventions.

How do I keep a SKILL.md file under the line limit?▼

Keep SKILL.md under 500 lines by moving large content into a references/ directory and linking to it from the body. Reference files over 300 lines should include a table of contents.
