Skill Pack Factory

Skill Pack Factory

Make fewer, sharper skills. Use references for breadth.

Creation Flow

1. Cluster source material into workflow patterns.
2. For multiple local source clones, run

$auto-skill-build-source-pattern-synthesis before creating skill files.

1. Remove duplicates and generic advice.
2. For each skill, define one job and skip conditions.
3. Keep SKILL.md short; move examples and catalogs to references.
4. Add scripts only for repeated deterministic mechanics.
5. Validate with $skill-quality-gate.

When source material is an external skill pack, slash-command pack, hook plugin, or upstream prompt catalogue, run $auto-skill-safety-external-skill-intake before creating or installing local skills from it.

Quality Bar

A skill is worth creating only if it changes Codex behavior in one of these ways:

• chooses better files/tools
• prevents a risky action
• saves repeated tokens
• preserves durable project knowledge
• turns a domain workflow into a checklist
• makes validation more reliable

Read references/skill-patterns.md before generating large batches.

Validation

• Each skill has one job, trigger language, skip conditions, and validation.
• Long catalogs/examples live in references, not SKILL.md.
• Run $skill-quality-gate before installing or relying on the pack.
