skill-creator

Skill-creator automates skill creation by generating SKILL.md templates and resource directories (scripts, references, assets) through init_skill.py. Run python3 scripts/init_skill.py <skill-name> --path <path> to bootstrap a new skill with standardized structure and frontmatter automatically enforced.

This skill enforces YAML frontmatter standards requiring name and description fields, ensuring consistent metadata across all skills. It provides templates and validation tools (quick_validate.py) to maintain quality and structure for reproducible skill packaging and distribution.

Yes, skill-creator handles both new and existing skills. It applies standardized YAML frontmatter, well-structured SKILL.md body formatting, and optional resource bundles to update skills while maintaining consistency with your skill ecosystem.

Skill-creator generates SKILL.md with enforced YAML frontmatter, example resource directories (scripts/, references/, assets/), and sample starter resources. You customize the template and remove sample files as needed for your specific skill implementation.

Skill-creator has no external dependencies and requires only Python 3 to run init_skill.py and quick_validate.py scripts. It works as a standalone scaffolding tool for any new or existing skill project.

The skill enforces progressive disclosure through guided templates, validates frontmatter standards, and provides quick_validate.py tooling to check compliance before packaging. This ensures all generated skills follow conventions and are ready for distribution.
