Create Skill

Author effective, lean skills that extend agents with specialized workflows, following the exact devex-kit patterns used by every skill in this kit.

This skill is the general entry point for skill creation and improvement. For plugin-specific restructure, the 5 principles, agents, empty commands/, and examples/ layout, also load agent-plugin-development.

State the phase or paste the request. The skill will route and keep you on the rails.

Phases

Phase What you do Key question
Capture Intent, interview, research What exactly should trigger this and what must the output look like?
Draft Write lean SKILL.md + plan references Is the body under control and delegating to references/?
Test & Iterate Cases, runs, review, improve (when valuable) Does real usage + feedback show the skill is reliable and general?
Optimize Description tuning for triggering Will the description make the agent load it at the right moments?
Package Validate, tile, docs, lock, ship Can another dev (or agent) install and use it cleanly?
