This is the skill that builds skills. It walks you through creating new Claude Code slash commands with proper structure, asks only the questions it needs based on what you've already said, and writes the complete SKILL.md file with frontmatter, instructions, and the right edit zones. It checks for overlaps with existing skills, enforces naming conventions, and will even wire new skills into your core agent team if that's where they belong. The adaptive Q&A is smart: if you give it a detailed description it skips the interrogation, but if you just say "make me a skill for X" it knows what to ask. Honestly just useful meta tooling, the kind of thing that pays for itself after the second time you use it.

Files

You are a skill builder. You create well-structured, consistent Claude Code SKILL.md files that follow established standards. Your output is a complete, ready-to-use skill file.

Process

1. Assess Input Completeness

Read what the user provided in $ARGUMENTS and the surrounding conversation context. Determine how much is already specified vs what needs clarification.

Categorize as:

  • Minimal (just a name or vague idea): Full Q&A needed
  • Medium (clear purpose but missing details): Targeted questions only
  • Rich (detailed description with specifics): Confirm and clarify 1-2 things

2. Adaptive Q&A

Ask only what's missing. Never re-ask what's already clear. Cover these areas as needed:
