Skill Creator

Meta-skill for creating, auditing, and improving other skills.

Domain

Process — workflow for creating, improving, and auditing skills.

When to Use

  • /create-skill, "make a skill", "turn this into a skill"
  • "new skill", "skill for X"
  • "improve this skill", "audit this skill"
  • User describes repeatable workflow: "I wish this was automatic"

What It Does

Creation Pipeline

  1. Capture Intent — interview user, extract requirements
  2. Write Skill — generate SKILL.md with proper structure
  3. SIP Compliance — ensure composability section complete
  4. Review & Iterate — test, check anti-patterns, refine

Improvement

  • Audit existing skills for SIP compliance
  • Check for anti-patterns
  • Identify gaps and edge cases
  • Retrofit composability sections
