playbook-creator

playbook-creator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from DataSift-Ty-Personal/SiftStack. It costs 0 tokens per session (5,586 once invoked), scanned C, original, MIT.

A documentation workflow for turning descriptions, existing documents, or meeting transcripts into playbooks and standard operating procedures, or SOPs.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to document how work is done, capture workflows from meetings or screen shares, create Mermaid diagrams, and write repeatable procedures.
Why use it?
It turns scattered explanations into clear steps, decisions, process maps, and visual placeholders that a team can follow.

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 C, and why

playbook-creator scanned grade C with 1 finding 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 today.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 4 executable files (scripts/build_docx.js, scripts/build_pdf.py, scripts/transcribe_video.py, …), listed below but not scanned — reading those needs a real analyzer, not pattern matching.

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.

Tells the agent never to refusehighAnti-refusal

Suppressing the ability to decline removes a core safety control; a later harmful request then succeeds.

**Never refuse to create.** Always produce something, even from poor input. Flag sections that need user review with a note like: `> **Needs Review:** This step was unclear in the source. Please confirm the exact action.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 395 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Playbook & SOP Creator

This skill creates professional documentation in three formats:

  1. SOP - step-by-step operational procedure for a specific, repeatable task. Ships as a PAIR: a human Word doc plus an agent-executable .sop.md twin.
  2. Playbook - strategic framework covering a system of processes, with mental models and decision logic.
  3. Step Guide - a Scribe-style click path: one screen action per step, one screenshot per step, nothing else.

All formats include process maps built with Mermaid where flow needs visualizing, screenshot capture specs for software interfaces, and are written at a 5th-grade reading level so anyone on a team can follow them.

The skill works from multiple input types: raw transcripts (meetings, training calls, screen shares), written descriptions, existing documentation, or just a topic the user wants documented. When working from transcripts, it extracts the actual workflow being demonstrated - the clicks, the decisions, the order of operations - and structures it into clean documentation.

Input Detection

Understand what the user gave you and adapt:

Input Type What to Do
Raw transcript (meeting notes, Fireflies, call recording) Extract the workflow being taught. Identify the teacher vs. learner. Pull out the actual steps, decision points, tools used, and tips mentioned. Ignore small talk and tangents.
Topic only ("create a playbook for pulling foreclosures") Research the topic using available tools and your knowledge. Ask clarifying questions about their specific tools and workflow.
Existing doc (rough notes, bullet points, old SOP) Restructure into the proper template. Improve clarity. Add process maps and visual aids.
Screen share / walkthrough description Treat like a transcript - extract the sequential actions, what was clicked, what was checked, and what decisions were made. This input usually wants a Step Guide.
Video recording (screen recording with narration) The richest input: the narration carries the steps and judgment, the frames ARE the screenshots. See "Video Input" below.

playbook-creator is a skill published in the GitHub repository DataSift-Ty-Personal/SiftStack (21 stars, last pushed yesterday), licensed MIT. It costs nothing until one of its globs matches a file; then it loads 5,586 tokens. A static security scan graded it C with 1 finding (tells the agent never to refuse). No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-30.
