skill-builder
From the author
Builds a new Claude Code skill from scratch through a relentless, evidence-based interview that walks the skill's design tree decision-by-decision — entity fit, use cases, name, description, workflow steps, tools, and progressive-disclosure layout — then reviews the finished skill against the plugin-building guidance and applies every fix it finds. Use when creating, authoring, scaffolding, designing, or drafting a new skill or slash command. Does not build an agent or subagent — use agent-builder. Does not serve, vendor, or refresh the authoring guidance itself — use guidance.

- agent-buildertestdouble/hanBuilds a new Claude Code agent (subagent) from scratch through a relentless, evidence-based interview that walks the agent's design tree decision-by-decision — entity fit, domain focus and vocabulary, role identity, anti-patterns, description, model tier, tools, and self-containment — then reviews the finished agent against the plugin-building guidance and applies every fix it finds. Use when creating, authoring, scaffolding, designing, or drafting a new agent or subagent. Does not build a skill or slash command — use skill-builder.

- guidancetestdouble/hanAuthoritative guidance for building Claude Code skills, agents, and plugins, plus init and update steps that install and refresh the plugin-building skills in the current repository. Use when you need the rules or best practices for a skill, agent, hook, or plugin — designing, reviewing, hardening, or checking one against the guidance. Run with `init` to vendor the guidance, skill-builder, and agent-builder skills into the current repository (so they run with no dependency on this plugin) plus a path-scoped rule index, or `update` to refresh an already-vendored copy. Does not run an interview to build a new skill or agent from scratch — use skill-builder or agent-builder. Does not write feature code, review application code, or build non-plugin features.Writing★ 320
