Create Skill

Create a new skill using the skrills MCP server.

Use the `mcp__plugin_skrills_skrills__create-skill` tool with:

  • `name`: Name or topic for the skill (required)
  • `description`: What the skill should do (required)
  • `method`: Creation method - github (search), llm (generate), both, or empirical
  • `target_dir`: Directory to create skill in
  • `dry_run`: Preview without creating files

Parse `$ARGUMENTS`:

  • First argument: skill name
  • Remaining text: skill description
  • `--method <method>` or `-m <method>`: Creation method (default: both)
  • `--dry-run` or `-n`: Preview mode
  • `--dir <path>`: Target directory

Default behavior: 1. Search GitHub for existing skills matching the name/description 2. If found, offer to download and adapt 3. If not found or declined, generate a new skill using LLM

Report:

  • Search results (if method includes github)
  • Generated skill content (if method includes llm)
  • File location where skill was created

Handle errors:

  • If name/description missing: Prompt for required fields
  • If GitHub search fails: Fall back to LLM generation
  • If target directory not writable: Report path and suggest alternative
  • If skill already exists: Prompt for overwrite or new name
