Usage

When the user asks to create a new skill, follow these steps in order.

Step 1: Gather Info

Ask the user for:

  • Skill name (kebab-case, e.g. my-new-skill)
  • Description (single line, no newlines, max 1024 chars)
  • Subdirectories needed (references/, scripts/, examples/, templates/, assets/ -- all optional)

Step 2: Create Directory and SKILL.md

bash
1mkdir -p skills/<skill-name>

Write skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md with this template:

markdown
1--- 2name: <skill-name> 3description: <single-line description> 4license: MIT 5--- 6 7# <Skill Title> 8 9<Brief overview of what the skill does and when to use it.>

Step 3: Create Requested Subdirectories

If the user wants references/, scripts/, etc., create them with a .gitkeep:

bash
1mkdir -p skills/<skill-name>/references 2touch skills/<skill-name>/references/.gitkeep

Create a symlink in the business plugin so the skill is discoverable:

bash
1ln -s ../../../skills/<skill-name> plugins/business/skills/<skill-name>

Step 5: Validate

Run validation to confirm everything is correct:

bash
1just validate

Fix any issues reported before continuing.

Step 6: Update README Table

bash
1just readme-table --write

Conventions

  • Name: Must be kebab-case, must match the directory name exactly
  • Description: Single line, no \n or \r, no YAML block scalars (|, >)
  • Orphan rule: Every file in subdirectories must be referenced from SKILL.md via markdown link or backtick
