About

Deprecated Skill Maintenance

Use this skill when a skill is no longer recommended but should remain understandable.

Purpose

skills/deprecated/ keeps retired skills visible until users and workflows have moved away from them. Deprecation should explain what replaced the skill and why.

When To Deprecate

  • Another skill fully replaces it.
  • The workflow is unsafe or misleading.
  • The scope became too broad or unclear.
  • The domain changed and the instructions are stale.
  • It was an experiment that should not be promoted.

Rules

  • Do not delete a retired skill until replacements and references are clear.
  • Do not leave active workflows pointing at deprecated skills.
  • Keep the deprecation reason short and factual.
  • Preserve useful reference material when it can be safely reused.

Workflow

  1. Identify replacement
  • Name the new skill or workflow if one exists.
  • If no replacement exists, state that clearly.
  1. Move carefully
  • Move the old skill folder into skills/deprecated/.
  • Keep its SKILL.md readable.
  • Add a deprecation note near the top.
  1. Update references
  • Remove it from README stable skill lists.
  • Remove it from workflow recommendations.
  • Update data/workflows.json or data/tools.json if needed.
  1. Explain the reason
  • State why the skill was retired.
  • State what to use instead.
  • Preserve any useful reference links.
  1. Validate
  • Run skill and workflow validation.
  • Confirm no active workflow depends on the deprecated skill.
