skill-creator

Create standardized skill scaffolds using the Skill Creator framework, which generates a new skill directory with SKILL.md frontmatter, enforces hyphen-case naming, and follows the three-tier loading pattern. Run `python scripts/init_skill.py new-skill --path skills/public` to initialize a skill with starter structure and naming conventions built in.

Claude Skills use hyphen-case naming (e.g., new-skill) and a three-tier loading pattern with standardized YAML frontmatter in SKILL.md. The Skill Creator enforces these conventions during initialization to ensure consistency, reusability, and compliance with packaging workflows across skill development.

Validate a skill using `python scripts/quick_validate.py skills/public/new-skill` to check YAML frontmatter, naming conventions, content sizing, and structured sections. The Skill Creator provides packaging scripts that streamline validation and deployment, ensuring skills meet framework requirements before release.

Yes. The Skill Creator framework supports updating existing skills and extending capabilities by adding scripts, references, and assets while maintaining SKILL.md frontmatter conventions. Follow the same naming and structure guidance to keep skills modular, concise, and reusable across iterations.

Claude Skills require YAML frontmatter in SKILL.md, hyphen-case naming, structured sections organized by the three-tier loading pattern, and compliance with content sizing limits. The Skill Creator scaffold includes all required sections and validation rules to ensure skills remain concise and meet packaging standards.
