skill-creator

skill-creator is a skill for Claude Code from prowler-cloud/prowler. It costs 36 tokens per session (1,071 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

Instructions for creating AI agent skills: reusable guidance that tells an agent when and how to handle a repeated development task. It follows the Agent Skills specification and includes a standard file structure.

In plain words
What is it for?
Creating a new skill, documenting coding patterns for an AI agent, or deciding whether a recurring task needs a skill.
Why use it?
It helps turn project-specific patterns and multi-step workflows into instructions an AI agent can reuse.

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

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 2mo 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.

When to Create a Skill

Create a skill when:

  • A pattern is used repeatedly and AI needs guidance
  • Project-specific conventions differ from generic best practices
  • Complex workflows need step-by-step instructions
  • Decision trees help AI choose the right approach

Don't create a skill when:

  • Documentation already exists (create a reference instead)
  • Pattern is trivial or self-explanatory
  • It's a one-off task

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.
