creating-skill

From the author

Builds and revises a complete skill DIRECTORY — SKILL.md, scripts, references, assets — and packages it. Use for "create a skill for X", "turn this into a skill", "update/improve this skill", "why doesn't my skill trigger", "review this SKILL.md", "package this skill", or when a repeated procedure should become a reusable artifact. Enforces the structure that makes skills work — a concrete procedure rather than a goal statement, an explicit applicability boundary, failure modes with their signals, a runtime verification step, and a description checked against the existing catalogue for confusability. For choosing whether the instruction should be a skill at all rather than project instructions or a prompt, use crafting-instructions. For writing quality inside the prose, use writing-instructions.
