skill-creator
Skill Creator (with Superpowers Enforcement)
This skill wraps the built-in skill-creator:skill-creator with enforcement pattern awareness from the superpowers framework. It adds an enforcement audit layer to the skill-creator's draft-test-iterate loop.
When This Skill Applies
All skill creation and improvement work. This skill loads instead of the built-in skill-creator because it adds enforcement awareness that the built-in version lacks.
Process
Step 1: Classify the Skill
Before drafting, classify the skill being created:
| Type | Description | Enforcement Needs |
|---|---|---|
| Workflow skill | Multi-phase process (like /dev, /ds, /writing) | High — needs Iron Laws, gates, rationalization tables |
| Tool skill | Wraps a tool or API (like readwise, wrds, bluebook) | Medium — needs Red Flags for common misuse |
| Knowledge skill | Domain knowledge reference (like ai-anti-patterns) | Low — needs trigger-only descriptions |

ai-anti-patterns
This skill should be used when reviewing AI-generated text, checking for AI writing patterns, detecting undisclosed AI content, or before finalizing any written content. Covers 12 categories of AI writing indicators from Wikipedia's comprehensive guide.
30marimo
This skill should be used when the user asks to "use marimo", "create a marimo notebook", "debug a marimo notebook", "inspect cells", "understand reactive execution", "fix marimo errors", "convert from jupyter to marimo", or works with marimo reactive Python notebooks.
23dev-debug
This skill should be used when the user asks to 'debug', 'fix bug', 'investigate error', 'why is it broken', 'trace root cause', 'find the bug', or needs systematic debugging with fresh-context subagent iterations and progress-gated escalation.
16writing
This skill should be used when the user asks to 'write a paper', 'start a writing project', 'draft an article', 'write about', 'brainstorm writing topics', 'gather sources for a paper', 'what should I write about', or needs the writing workflow entry point for any writing task.
4writing-revise
This skill should be used when the user asks to 'revise writing', 'fix review issues', 'polish draft', 'apply review feedback', 'complete writing workflow', or after /writing-review produces REVIEW.md with issues to fix.
3docx-footnotes
Repair DOCX footnote damage from Google Docs or Word Online round-trips, and convert hardcoded supra/infra note references to auto-updating NOTEREF field codes. Use this skill whenever a user's .docx footnotes are broken after editing in a cloud editor — common symptoms include missing footnote separator lines, stripped paragraph styles (pStyle), author bio custom marks (*, †, ‡) replaced with numbers, footnote numbering starting at the wrong number, or TOC separator paragraphs that inflate to fill a whole page. Also use this skill when the user wants to convert 'supra note N' cross-references to NOTEREF fields, fix footnote numbering offsets caused by customMarkFollows bio footnotes, or perform any OOXML-level footnote surgery on a Word document. Even if the user doesn't mention OOXML or XML directly — if they describe footnote formatting problems in a .docx that was edited in Google Docs or Word Online, this is the right skill.
