<objective> Skill Creator scaffolds a complete `SKILL.md` + `references/` structure following the project's skill conventions: conceptual references (WHY + WHEN, max 150 lines each) separated from copy-paste-ready templates. It covers four flows -- creating a brand-new skill, restructuring one that doesn't follow the pattern, improving a skill missing references or with outdated content, and adapting an existing skill to a different framework -- each ending with registration in the owning agent's frontmatter and marketplace.json, then a `fuse-ai-pilot:sniper` validation pass.

It generates the skill's structural and documentation content only, not the skill's substantive technical guidance -- that must come from `research-expert` + `explore-codebase` findings gathered before writing. </objective>

Skill Creator

Agent Workflow (MANDATORY)

Before ANY skill creation, use `TeamCreate` to spawn 3 agents:

1. **fuse-ai-pilot:explore-codebase** - Check existing skills, analyze structure 2. **fuse-ai-pilot:research-expert** - Fetch latest official documentation online 3. **mcp__context7__query-docs** - Get code examples from official sources

After creation, run **fuse-ai-pilot:sniper** for validation.

Overview

| Action | When to Use | |--------|-------------| | **New Skill** | Library/framework not yet documented | | **Restructure** | Existing skill doesn't follow pattern | | **Improve** | Missing references or outdated content | | **Adapt** | Copy from similar skill (Next.js → React) |

---

Critical Rules

1. **ALL content in English** - Never French or other languages 2. **SKILL.md is descriptive** - Guides agent to references/templates 3. **References are conceptual** - WHY + WHEN, max 150 lines 4. **Templates are complete** - Copy-paste ready code 5. **Register in agent + marketplace.json** - Or skill won't load 6. **Run sniper after creation** - Validate all files

Reference Guide

Concepts

| Topic | Reference | When to Consult | |-------|-----------|-----------------| | **Workflow** | [workflow.md](references/workflow.md) | Creating/improving skills | | **Architecture** | [architecture.md](references/architecture.md) | Understanding skill structure | | **Content Rules** | [content-rules.md](references/content-rules.md) | Writing references/templates | | **Registration** | [registration.md](references/registration.md) | Making skill available | | **Adaptation** | [adaptation.md](references/adaptation.md) | Converting between frameworks |

Templates

| Template | When to Use | |----------|-------------| | [SKILL-template.md](references/templates/SKILL-template.md) | Creating new SKILL.md | | [reference-template.md](references/templates/reference-template.md) | Creating reference files | | [template-template.md](references/templates/template-template.md) | Creating code templates |

Quick Reference

Create New Skill

# 1. Research documentation
→ research-expert + context7/exa

# 2. Create structure
mkdir -p plugins/<agent>/skills/<name>/references/templates

# 3. Create files
→ SKILL.md (from template)
→ references/*.md (conceptual)
→ references/templates/*.md (code)

# 4. Register
→ agent frontmatter + marketplace.json

# 5. Validate
→ sniper

Improve Existing Skill

# 1. Analyze
→ explore-codebase

# 2. Research updates
→ research-expert (latest docs)

# 3. Add missing files
→ references + templates

# 4. Validate
→ sniper

Best Practices

DO

• Research official docs before writing
• Use tables for organization
• Link references to templates
• Keep references conceptual
• Make templates copy-paste ready

DON'T

• Write in French (English only)
• Copy-paste raw documentation
• Exceed 150 lines in references
• Forget registration step
• Skip sniper validation
