Skill Repo Boilerplate

Scaffold a new AI agent skill repository with a consistent structure, quality tooling, and pre-commit hooks — or update an existing repo to align with current best practices.

Dependencies

Standalone. If find-skills is available, use it to check if a similar skill already exists before scaffolding.

This skill works alongside the agent's native skill system. Skills created here are compatible with slash command discovery — each SKILL.md is auto-detected when symlinked into the active agent runtime's skills directory.

When to Use

• User wants to create a new skill from scratch
• User wants to create a new skill repo (a collection of skills)
• User wants to align an existing skill repo with current best practices
