chat-to-skill

chat-to-skill is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from dannote/dot-pi. It costs 57 tokens per session (1,112 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A skill that turns the current chat into a reusable instruction set. It extracts the goal, related aims, mistakes, successful approaches, and general lessons.

In plain words
What is it for?
It helps create a general skill from a completed discussion, such as a repeatable way to solve a class of development problems.
Why use it?
It preserves a useful working method so it can be reused without keeping the entire original conversation.

SkillSpector: 1 finding, up to high

These are SkillSpector’s own severities. On a checked sample its high-severity flags on skills were ~96% false positives — a documented command, a public API, a “never do X” rule — so we show them as a caution to read, not a verdict. Why →

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

chat-to-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 8d 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.

Chat to Skill

Transform conversation history into reusable skills — long-term memory for Claude.

Process

1. Analyze Dialog

Scan the entire conversation to identify:

  • Primary goal: What was the user trying to achieve?
  • Secondary goals: Any related objectives discovered along the way
  • Errors encountered: Mistakes, dead ends, wrong approaches
  • Successful path: What actually worked

2. Abstract to Reusable Patterns

Critical: Do NOT create skills for specific cases. Abstract to general patterns.

Ask yourself:

  • What CATEGORY of problem was solved? (not the specific instance)
  • What would this look like with different data/context?
  • Would this skill be useful in other projects?

Abstraction levels (from bad to good):

Too specific (BAD) Good abstraction
"Seed users from client Excel" "Import spreadsheet data into Rails"
"Parse names into fields" (implementation detail, not a skill)
"Fix pytest in project X" "Configure pytest for monorepos"
"Add dark mode to app Y" "Implement theme switching in React"

Rules:

  • Remove project names, organization names, specific entities
  • Focus on the TECHNIQUE, not the specific data
  • If something is just an implementation detail (name parsing, date formatting), it's not a separate skill
  • One dialog = usually one skill (the main workflow), not multiple micro-skills

3. Extract Context-Specific Details

Depending on the task type, look for:

Development tasks:

  • Commands and flags that worked
  • Versions and compatibility (what works with what)
  • Configuration that was needed
  • Code patterns and architectural decisions
  • Debugging process (how the root cause was found)
  • Tool/library choices and why

Research/analysis tasks:

  • Sources that proved useful
  • Search strategies that worked
  • How to validate findings

Process/workflow tasks:

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.
