Skill Creator

This skill helps you create new Agent Skills for this repository. Agent Skills are specialized, repeatable tasks that GitHub Copilot can handle in agent mode.

Why Agent Skills?

• Specialized Workflows: Handle tasks like debugging or testing without repetitive prompting.
• Open Standard: Uses the Anthropic standard for portability across tools (VS Code, Copilot CLI, Cursor).
• Domain-Specific: Injects repo-specific instructions and resources on demand.
• Context Efficiency: Reduces context window bloat by loading only relevant skills.

Mental Model

Agent Skills are repository-level extensions.

• A skill is a directory under .github/skills/.
• Each skill contains a mandatory SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter (name, description) and a Markdown body.
• Copilot matches your request to a skill description and injects the content into its context.
