happycapy-skill-creator

happycapy-skill-creator is a skill for Claude Code, Codex from happycapy-ai/Happycapy-skills. It costs 59 tokens per session (605 once invoked), scanned A, original, MIT.

A workflow for creating distributable coding-agent skills by adapting related skills from Anthropic’s public skills repository. It also checks and adjusts them for environments without Docker and with specified Python and Node.js versions.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating or adapting skills for tasks such as compressing PDFs or extracting video frames, then producing a `.skill` package.
Why use it?
Creating a skill from nothing takes time, and an existing skill may depend on tools the target environment cannot run. This workflow finds a close starting point, adds requested features, fixes compatibility issues, and packages the result.

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

happycapy-skill-creator 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 13d ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 15 executable files (scripts/ai_gateway.py, scripts/auto_fix_improved.py, scripts/auto_fix.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.

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.

HappyCapy Skill Creator

Automate skill creation through adaptation rather than building from scratch.

Workflow

python scripts/create_skill.py "Your requirement here" --name skill-name

Process:

  1. Search anthropics/skills for similar skills (semantic + LLM)
  2. Clone the closest match
  3. Add requested features using LLM
  4. Auto-fix HappyCapy compatibility (remove Docker, adapt dependencies)
  5. Package as .skill file

Core Scripts

create_skill.py

Main orchestrator - runs full workflow end-to-end

semantic_search.py

LLM-powered semantic search of anthropics/skills repository

clone_skill.py

Clone skill from GitHub (anthropics/skills)

integrate_feature.py

Add new features using LLM fine-tuning

check_compatibility.py

Scan for HappyCapy incompatibilities (Docker, unsupported runtimes, memory issues)

auto_fix.py

Auto-fix compatibility issues with LLM rewrites

package_skill.py

Create distributable .skill file (zip format)

Examples

Compress PDFs:

python scripts/create_skill.py "I need to compress PDF files"
# Finds pdf skill → Clones → Adds compress function → Packages

Extract video frames:

python scripts/create_skill.py "Extract frames from videos every second"
# Finds video-frames skill → Clones → Adds interval parameter → Packages

Environment Constraints

HappyCapy provides:

  • ✅ Python 3.11, Node.js 24
  • ✅ pandoc, ImageMagick, jq
  • ✅ 4GB RAM, 2 CPU cores

HappyCapy does NOT support:

  • ❌ Docker, Java, Ruby, Go

The tool automatically fixes incompatibilities.

Requirements

  • Python 3.11+
  • AI_GATEWAY_API_KEY environment variable (auto-configured in HappyCapy)
  • Internet connection (to clone from anthropics/skills)

Advanced

Use improved auto-fix with batching:

from scripts.auto_fix_improved import fix_compatibility_issues

fix_compatibility_issues(
    skill_path=path,
    issues=issues,
    batch_size=5,      # Process 5 issues per batch
    max_retries=2      # Retry failed fixes up to 2 times
)

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.
