SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

💡 This Skill includes scripts (resource) and references (resource) and assets (resource) components.

What problem does it solve? Writing an effective skill is hard to get right on the first try — descriptions may undertrigger, instructions may be ambiguous, and there is no built-in way to know whether a skill actually improves Claude's output. This Skill provides a structured draft-test-review-iterate workflow with quantitative evals and benchmarks so skills are validated against real test prompts instead of guesswork. ## Core Features & Use Cases - Guided Skill Authoring: Captures intent through an interview process, then drafts SKILL.md files following progressive disclosure, writing-style, and anatomy best practices. - Evaluation & Benchmarking: Runs test prompts with and without the skill in parallel, grades assertions, aggregates pass rates, timing, and token statistics, and generates an HTML review viewer for human feedback. - Description Optimization: Iteratively rewrites the skill's description and measures triggering accuracy against train/test query sets to improve when the skill activates. - Use Case: You want a skill that formats weekly status reports. Use this Skill to draft it, run three realistic test prompts, review the outputs in the eval viewer, refine the instructions, and benchmark the final version against a no-skill baseline. ## Quick Start Help me create a new skill that converts meeting transcripts into structured action-item lists, then test and improve it.

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 new Claude skill from scratch?▼

Start by defining what the skill should do and when it should trigger, then write a SKILL.md with a name and description in YAML frontmatter followed by markdown instructions. This Skill guides the interview, drafting, and testing steps.

How do I test whether my skill actually improves Claude's output?▼

Run realistic test prompts with and without the skill in parallel, grade the outputs against assertions, and compare pass rates. The aggregate_benchmark.py script computes mean, stddev, and deltas for pass rate, time, and tokens.

How can I improve a skill description so it triggers more reliably?▼

Use the description optimization protocol: generate trigger eval queries labeled should-trigger or not, run the optimization loop that rewrites the description, and measure accuracy on held-out test queries before applying the best version.

What is the required structure of a valid skill directory?▼

A skill requires a SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter containing name and description, plus markdown instructions. Optional scripts/, references/, and assets/ directories hold executable code, documentation, and output templates.

Does skill evaluation work without subagents, such as on Claude.ai?▼

Yes, but with limitations: run test cases sequentially yourself, skip baseline runs and quantitative benchmarking, and present results inline for feedback instead of using the browser-based eval viewer.
