Skill Creator

This is the meta skill for building skills themselves. It scaffolds directories, writes SKILL.md files with proper frontmatter, and organizes scripts, references, and assets. The real value is in the opinionated structure it enforces: skills as SOPs not agents, descriptions as the primary trigger mechanism, progressive disclosure to save tokens. If you're creating custom skills for your team or debugging why a skill won't trigger, this handles the finicky parts like YAML syntax and frontmatter optimization. Think of it as the skill that makes all other skills possible.
