Skill Graph Creator
Guide for creating skill graphs — interlinked, modular skill architectures that decompose knowledge into navigable reference networks. Use when users want to create a new skill graph (or upgrade an existing skill) that extends Claude's capabilities with specialized knowledge, workflows, or tool integrations. Always produces graph-structured output with lean index files, interlinked references, an…

Declared compatibility
Compatibility is declared by the source manifest. End-to-end runtime verification is coming, see below.
We're building live execution health for every listing: tool-call success rate, median latency, uptime, and last-checked timestamps, measured, not self-reported. It isn't live yet, so we don't show numbers we can't stand behind.

Skill Graph Creator
This skill provides a navigable reference graph for creating skill graphs. All detailed content lives in reference files and tool scripts — this file contains only navigation.
Core Principles
Foundational rules preserved from the skill creation framework:
| Principle | Reference | |-----------|-----------| | Overview of all principles | [references/core-principles/overview.md](references/core-principles/overview.md) | | Conciseness & context efficiency | [references/core-principles/conciseness.md](references/core-principles/conciseness.md) | | Degrees of freedom | [references/core-principles/degrees-of-freedom.md](references/core-principles/degrees-of-freedom.md) | | Progressive disclosure | [references/core-principles/progressive-disclosure.md](references/core-principles/progressive-disclosure.md) | | Skill anatomy & structure | [references/core-principles/skill-anatomy.md](references/core-principles/skill-anatomy.md) | | Problem decomposition | [references/core-principles/problem-decomposition.md](references/core-principles/problem-decomposition.md) | | One-shot design | [references/core-principles/one-shot-design.md](references/core-principles/one-shot-design.md) |
Graph Architecture
How to structure skills as interlinked graphs instead of monolithic files:
| Topic | Reference | |-------|-----------| | Graph principles overview | [references/graph-architecture/overview.md](references/graph-architecture/overview.md) | | Index design (lean SKILL.md) | [references/graph-architecture/index-design.md](references/graph-architecture/index-design.md) | | Interlinking patterns | [references/graph-architecture/interlinking.md](references/graph-architecture/interlinking.md) | | Content decomposition | [references/graph-architecture/decomposition.md](references/graph-architecture/decomposition.md) | | Extension points | [references/graph-architecture/extension-points.md](references/graph-architecture/extension-points.md) | | Context management | [references/graph-architecture/context-management.md](references/graph-architecture/context-management.md) |
Creation Process
Nine-step process for building a skill graph. Steps 0.5, 1–2, and 9 are mandatory and must never be skipped:
| Step | Description | Reference | |------|-------------|-----------| | Overview | Full process summary | [references/creation-process/overview.md](references/creation-process/overview.md) | | 0.5. Domain classification | Classify task profile | [references/creation-process/domain-classification.md](references/creation-process/domain-classification.md) | | 1.
