create-skill

A command that turns a source such as a website, code repository, PDF, video, or notebook into an AI skill—a set of instructions and reference material an AI assistant can use.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating a skill from documentation or other source material, then optionally packaging it for a specific AI platform.
Why use it?
It avoids manually collecting and rewriting information before an AI assistant can work with it.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

create-skill scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 3d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

What it actually says

Create Skill

Create an AI-ready skill from a source. The source type is auto-detected.

Usage

/skill-seekers:create-skill <source> [--preset <level>] [--output <dir>]

Instructions

When the user provides a source via $ARGUMENTS, run the skill-seekers create command to generate a skill.

  1. Parse the arguments: extract the source (first argument) and any flags.
  2. If no --preset is specified, default to quick for fast results.
  3. If no --output is specified, default to ./output.
  4. Run the create command:
    skill-seekers create "$SOURCE" --preset quick --output "$OUTPUT"
    
  5. After completion, read the generated SKILL.md and summarize what was created.
  6. If the user wants to target a specific platform (e.g., Claude, OpenAI, LangChain), run the package command after:
    skill-seekers package "$SKILL_DIR" --target "$PLATFORM"
    

Presets

  • -p quick — 1-2 minutes, basic skill
  • -p standard — 5-10 minutes, good coverage
  • -p comprehensive — 20-60 minutes, full analysis

Source Types (auto-detected)

  • URL (https://...) — Documentation scraping
  • owner/repo or github.com URL — GitHub repo analysis
  • file.pdf — PDF extraction
  • file.ipynb — Jupyter notebook
  • file.docx — Word document
  • file.epub — EPUB book
  • YouTube/Vimeo URL — Video transcript
  • ./directory — Local codebase analysis
  • file.yaml with OpenAPI — API spec
  • file.pptx — PowerPoint
  • file.adoc — AsciiDoc
  • file.html — HTML page
  • file.rss — RSS/Atom feed
  • cmd.1 — Man page

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
