Generate new project-local skills with proper structure

Commands

Command	Description	Example
/skill-create [name]	Create a new skill	/skill-create api-monitor

How to Execute

1. Validate Name

• Must be lowercase with hyphens only ([a-z0-9-]+)
• Must not conflict with existing skills in skills/ directory
• Must be 2-30 characters long

2. Create Directory

Create skills/{name}/ directory.

3. Generate SKILL.md

Write skills/{name}/SKILL.md with the following template:

---
name: {name}
classification: C
description: |
  {User-provided description or placeholder}

  Triggers: {name}, {related keywords}

user-invocable: true
argument-hint: "[args]"

allowed-tools:
  - read_file
  - write_file
  - glob
  - grep_search

imports: []
agents: {}
context: session
memory: project
pdca-phase: do
---

# {Name} Skill

> {One-line description}

## Output Format

{Define expected output}

4. Verify Creation

• Confirm the directory exists
• Confirm SKILL.md has valid YAML frontmatter
• Show the user the created file path

5. Interactive Refinement

After creating the template, ask the user:

1. What should this skill do specifically?
2. What MCP tools should it use?
3. What triggers should activate it (in multiple languages)?

Then update the SKILL.md with their answers.

Skill Classification

Code	Type	Description
W	Workflow	Multi-step process (PDCA, deploy, QA)
C	Command	Single action (audit, status, create)
G	Guide	Educational/reference content

File Structure

skills/{name}/
  SKILL.md        # Required - skill definition and instructions

Naming Conventions

• Use descriptive, action-oriented names: api-monitor, db-migrate, log-analyzer
• Avoid generic names: helper, util, misc
• Use hyphens to separate words, not underscores or camelCase

Output Format

## Skill Created: {name}

- **Path**: skills/{name}/SKILL.md
- **Classification**: C (Command)
- **Status**: Ready to use

Next steps:
1. Review and customize `skills/{name}/SKILL.md`
2. Add specific triggers for your use case
3. Test with `/{name}` command

Validation Rules

1. No duplicate names - check skills/ directory first
2. Valid characters - lowercase alphanumeric and hyphens only
3. Valid YAML - frontmatter must parse correctly
4. Required fields - name, classification, description, user-invocable
