Skill Creator
Creates new Claude skills from scratch, optimizes existing ones, and runs evals to measure performance. The workflow is iterative: draft the skill, write test prompts, run benchmarks, evaluate results both qualitatively and quantitatively, then refine based on feedback. It includes a separate script for optimizing skill descriptions to improve triggering accuracy, which matters because Claude tends to undertrigger skills. The tool adjusts its communication style based on user technical literacy, from plumbers opening terminals for the first time to experienced developers. Useful when you need to capture a workflow you've been doing manually, or when a skill isn't firing when it should.

Skill Creator
A skill for creating new skills and iteratively improving them.
At a high level, the process of creating a skill goes like this:
- Decide what you want the skill to do and roughly how it should do it
- Write a draft of the skill
- Create a few test prompts and run claude-with-access-to-the-skill on them
- Help the user evaluate the results both qualitatively and quantitatively
- While the runs happen in the background, draft some quantitative evals if there aren't any (if there are some, you can either use as is or modify if you feel something needs to change about them). Then explain them to the user (or if they already existed, explain the ones that already exist)
- Use the
eval-viewer/generate_review.pyscript to show the user the results for them to look at, and also let them look at the quantitative metrics
- Rewrite the skill based on feedback from the user's evaluation of the results (and also if there are any glaring flaws that become apparent from the quantitative benchmarks)
- Repeat until you're satisfied
- Expand the test set and try again at larger scale
