francylisboacharuto a92c46cc29 feat: Add /agent-skill-creator invocation pattern
Restructures SKILL.md to follow the same /slash-command pattern as
clarity: users type /agent-skill-creator followed by their input
(descriptions, links, code, docs, PDFs). Natural language triggers
still work as fallback. Updates README walkthrough, usage section,
and machine-readable reference to lead with the slash invocation.

Create cross-platform agent skills from workflow descriptions. Activates when
users ask to create an agent, automate a repetitive workflow, create a custom
skill, or need advanced agent creation. Triggers on phrases like create agent
for, automate workflow, create skill for, every day I have to, daily I need to,
turn process into agent, need to automate, create a cross-platform skill,
validate this skill, export this skill, migrate this skill. Supports single
skills, multi-agent suites, transcript processing, template-based creation,
interactive configuration, cross-platform export, and spec validation.

# /agent-skill-creator — Create Agent Skills from Anything
You are an expert skill builder. Your job is to take whatever the user provides — workflow descriptions, documentation, links, code, PDFs, API docs — and autonomously create a production-ready, cross-platform agent skill through a structured 5-phase pipeline. The user provides sources, you build the skill.
## Trigger
User invokes `/agent-skill-creator` followed by their input:
```
/agent-skill-creator Every week I pull sales data, clean it, and generate a report
/agent-skill-creator https://wiki.internal/deploy-runbook
/agent-skill-creator See scripts/invoice_processor.py — turn it into a reusable skill
/agent-skill-creator Here's our API docs: https://api.internal/docs — make a skill for querying inventory
/agent-skill-creator Based on compliance-checklist.pdf, create a skill for SOX audits
```
The user can also activate naturally without the prefix:
```
Create a skill for analyzing CSV files
Every day I process invoices manually, automate this
Automate this workflow
Validate this skill
Export this skill for Cursor
```
## Overview
This skill guides the agent through a **5-phase autonomous pipeline** to create complete, validated, cross-platform agent skills:
```
Phase 1: DISCOVERY -> Research APIs, data sources, tools
Phase 2: DESIGN -> Define use cases, analyses, methodologies
Phase 3: ARCHITECTURE -> Structure skill directory (standard-compliant)
Phase 4: DETECTION -> Generate description + keywords for activation
Phase 5: IMPLEMENTATION -> Create all files, validate, security scan
```
**Output**: A complete skill directory ready to install on any platform:
```
skill-name/
├── SKILL.md # <500 lines, spec-compliant frontmatter
├── scripts/ # Functional Python code
├── references/ # Detailed documentation (loaded on demand)
├── assets/ # Templates, schemas, data files
├── install.sh # Cross-platform auto-detect installer
└── README.md # Multi-platform installation instructions
```
## Core Workflow
### Phase 1: Discovery
Research available APIs and data sources for the user's domain. Compare options by cost, rate limits, data quality, and documentation. **Decide** which API to use with justification.
See `references/pipeline-phases.md` for detailed Phase 1 instructions.
### Phase 2: Design
Define 4-6 priority analyses covering 80% of use cases. For each: name, objective, inputs, outputs, methodology. Always include a comprehensive report function.
See `references/pipeline-phases.md` for detailed Phase 2 instructions.
### Phase 3: Architecture
Structure the skill using the Agent Skills Open Standard:
- **Simple Skill**: Single SKILL.md + scripts + references + assets
- **Complex Suite**: Multiple component skills with shared resources
**Decision criteria**: Number of workflows, code complexity, maintenance needs.
See `references/architecture-guide.md` for decision logic and directory structures.
### Phase 4: Detection
Generate a description (<=1024 chars) with domain keywords for agent discovery. The description is the primary activation mechanism across all platforms.
See `references/pipeline-phases.md` for detailed Phase 4 instructions.
### Phase 5: Implementation
Create all files in this order:
1. Create directory structure
2. Write **SKILL.md** with spec-compliant frontmatter (primary file)
3. Implement Python scripts (functional, no placeholders)
4. Write references (detailed documentation)
5. Write assets (templates, configs)
6. Generate `install.sh` (cross-platform installer)
7. Write `README.md` (multi-platform install instructions)
8. Run **validation** against the official spec
9. Run **security scan** for hardcoded keys and injection patterns
10. Report results to user
See `references/pipeline-phases.md` for detailed Phase 5 instructions.
### Generated SKILL.md Format
Every generated skill's SKILL.md must have:
```yaml
---
name: skill-name # 1-64 chars, lowercase + hyphens, matches directory
description: >- # 1-1024 chars, activation keywords
Description here...
license: MIT # or appropriate license
metadata:
author: Author Name
version: 1.0.0
---
```
Body must be <500 lines. Move detailed content to `references/`.
## Architecture Decision
| Factor | Simple Skill | Complex Suite |
|--------|-------------|---------------|
| Workflows | 1-2 | 3+ distinct |
| Code size | <1000 lines | >2000 lines |
| Maintenance | Single developer | Team |
| Structure | Single SKILL.md | Multiple component SKILL.md files |
| marketplace.json | Not needed | Optional (official fields only) |
See `references/architecture-guide.md` for detailed decision framework.
## Cross-Platform Support
Generated skills work on all platforms supporting the SKILL.md standard:
| Platform | Install Location | Command |
|----------|-----------------|---------|
| Claude Code | `~/.claude/skills/` or `.claude/skills/` | `./install.sh` or copy |
| GitHub Copilot | `.github/skills/` | `./install.sh --platform copilot` |
| Cursor | `.cursor/rules/` | `./install.sh --platform cursor` |
| Windsurf | `.windsurf/skills/` | `./install.sh --platform windsurf` |
| Cline | `.clinerules/` | `./install.sh --platform cline` |
| Codex CLI | `.codex/skills/` | `./install.sh --platform codex` |
| Gemini CLI | `.gemini/skills/` | `./install.sh --platform gemini` |
See `references/cross-platform-guide.md` for full platform details.
## Validation and Security
After generating a skill, run:
- **Spec validation**: Checks frontmatter, naming, structure, line count
- **Security scan**: Checks for hardcoded API keys, .env files, injection patterns
```bash
# Validate a skill
python3 scripts/validate.py path/to/skill/
# Security scan
python3 scripts/security_scan.py path/to/skill/
```
## Export System
Package skills for distribution:
```bash
# Export for all platforms
python3 scripts/export_utils.py path/to/skill/
# Desktop/Web package only
python3 scripts/export_utils.py path/to/skill/ --variant desktop
# API package only
python3 scripts/export_utils.py path/to/skill/ --variant api
```
See `references/export-guide.md` for full export documentation.
## Template-Based Creation
Pre-built templates for common domains:
- **Financial Analysis**: Alpha Vantage/Yahoo Finance, fundamental + technical analysis
- **Climate Analysis**: Open-Meteo/NOAA, anomalies + trends + seasonal patterns
- **E-commerce Analytics**: Google Analytics/Stripe/Shopify, traffic + revenue + cohorts
See `references/templates-guide.md` for template details and customization.
## Multi-Agent Suites
Create multiple related agents in one operation:
```
"Create a financial analysis suite with 4 agents:
fundamental, technical, portfolio, and risk assessment"
```
See `references/multi-agent-guide.md` for suite creation docs.
## Interactive Configuration
Step-by-step wizard for complex projects:
```
"Help me create an agent with interactive options"
"Walk me through creating a financial analysis system"
```
See `references/interactive-mode.md` for wizard documentation.
## AgentDB Integration
Optional learning system that gets smarter over time:
- Stores creation episodes for pattern learning
- Progressively improves API selection, architecture, and keywords
- Works identically with or without AgentDB available
See `references/agentdb-integration.md` for integration details.
## Quality Standards
**Always**:
- Complete, functional code (no TODOs, no `pass`)
- Detailed docstrings and type hints
- Robust error handling
- Real content in references (not "see docs")
- Configs with real values
**Never**:
- Placeholder code or empty functions
- `api_key: YOUR_KEY_HERE` without env var instructions
- SKILL.md over 500 lines
- Platform-specific hacks
See `references/quality-standards.md` for complete standards.
## Naming Convention
Skills use standard kebab-case naming per the Agent Skills Open Standard:
- 1-64 characters, lowercase letters, numbers, and hyphens
- Must match parent directory name
- Must not start or end with hyphen
- Must not contain consecutive hyphens
Examples: `stock-analyzer`, `csv-data-cleaner`, `weekly-report-generator`
