Skill Father

This skill is Boss’s opinionated, authoritative standard for creating/updating skills.

It is based on the upstream skill-creator guidance, with extra requirements:

  • Always include Prerequisites checks (fail fast).
  • Keep skills portable/shareable: do not bake machine-specific settings into SKILL.md.
  • Always include Initialization / Installation / Onboarding that prompts the user when needed.
  • Make skills reproducible for other people/machines.

Core principles (from skill-creator)

  • Concise is key: minimize context bloat.
  • Progressive disclosure: keep SKILL.md short; put big docs in references/, deterministic code in scripts/.
  • Avoid extra docs (README/CHANGELOG/etc.).
