skill-improver

Activation Contract

Use this skill when asked to audit, refactor, normalize, or improve existing SKILL.md files. Use skill-creator instead when creating a brand-new skill from a reusable pattern.

Hard Rules

• Treat docs/skill-style-guide.md as the normative style contract when it exists.
• For installed global skills, use references/skill-style-guide.md as the bundled local copy when docs/skill-style-guide.md is unavailable.
• Treat SKILL.md as the source of truth; preserve author intent, critical rules, activation semantics, and output requirements.
• Use .atl/skill-registry.md as an index of skill names, triggers, scopes, and exact paths; do not expect generated summaries.
• Default to audit-only. Modify files only when the user explicitly asks to apply improvements.
• Never delete meaningful content silently; move long explanation, examples, templates, or schemas into local references/ or assets/.
• Do not invent triggers, policies, or domain rules. Mark ambiguous cases for human review.
