workflow-skill-creator

workflow-skill-creator is a skill for Claude Code from SummerSec/SumSec-Skills. It costs 129 tokens per session (1,405 once invoked), scanned A, original, Apache-2.0.

A guide for creating skills that coordinate several dependent steps, preserve progress, and produce consistent results. A skill is a reusable set of instructions for a coding agent.

In plain words
What is it for?
Use it to design workflow, pipeline, analysis, audit, or other multi-step skills with progress files, helper scripts, and checks.
Why use it?
It helps prevent skipped steps, lost information between steps, inconsistent outputs, and oversized instruction files.

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

workflow-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 1mo ago.

The scan reads SKILL.md. This mod also ships 1 executable file (scripts/scaffold_workflow_skill.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.

Workflow Skill Creator

核心角色

将多步骤、有状态、需跨步骤传递数据的复杂任务转化为结构化的流程编排 Skill。

适用场景

以下信号使用本 skill(≥3 个即适用):

  • 任务需要 ≥3 个顺序步骤,步骤间有依赖关系
  • 步骤间需传递和累积状态数据(中间分析结果)
  • 需要确定性脚本辅助重复操作(路径生成、数据匹配、格式转换)
  • 有明确判定规则和领域知识需引用
  • 输出需标准化格式(报告模板、JSON 结构)
  • 需强制执行顺序,跳步导致分析不完整

不适用场景 — 使用普通 skill-creator:

  • 单步操作(格式转换、代码生成)
  • 无状态传递的简单指导
  • 纯知识检索

六大架构模式

详细原理与反模式见 架构模式参考。

模式 核心思想 解决的问题
1. 进度文件驱动 一个 Markdown 文件贯穿全流程,追加不覆盖 跨步骤状态丢失
2. 步骤框架分离 SKILL.md <200行,每步详细框架独立文件 SKILL.md 膨胀
3. 三阶段执行 每步:前置校验 → 执行记录 → 后置校验 跳步、结果不验证
4. 脚本自动化 确定性任务提取为独立脚本 输出不一致
5. 资源分层 元数据→主体→框架→参考 四级加载 上下文浪费
6. 路径一致性 {progress_file_path} 占位符全程传递 路径断裂

创建流程(6 步)

详细操作指南见 创建流程详细指南。

Step A: 需求梳理与步骤分解

先收集具体示例(用户原句写法、典型场景、期望输出),再确认任务画像(输入/输出/步骤数)。将任务分解为 3-8 个有明确依赖关系的顺序步骤,识别需跨步骤传递的状态数据。

Step B: 目录结构设计

使用脚手架脚本一键生成标准目录:

python3 ~/.claude/skills/workflow-skill-creator/scripts/scaffold_workflow_skill.py \
  --name {skill-name} \
  --steps {n} \
  --step-names "步骤1,步骤2,..." \
  --output ~/.claude/skills/{skill-name}/

脚本生成:SKILL.md 骨架、步骤框架文件、路径生成脚本、进度文件规范、模板文件。生成后逐文件填写具体内容。

Step C: 撰写 SKILL.md

遵循 Skill 模板,保持主体 <200 行。核心区块:角色 → 场景 → 架构模式 → 步骤概要 → 资源索引。用祈使语气,解释"为什么"而非仅仅"必须"。

Step D: 撰写步骤框架文件

每个 references/step_frameworks/stepN_xxx.md 遵循 Step 框架模板。必须包含:校验规则(前置+后置 checklist)、核心执行流程(可复制执行的命令)、完成标准与验收。开头必须有 ⚠️ 路径一致性要求 警告块。

Step E: 撰写脚本和模板

必建:路径生成脚本 — 根据输入参数生成确定性进度文件路径。可选:数据匹配脚本、格式转换脚本、校验脚本。模板:进度文件结构模板 + 最终输出模板。

Step F: 迭代优化

创建完成后,用真实场景测试 skill,根据执行表现调整步骤粒度、校验规则和模板。详细方法见 创建流程详细指南 Step F。

What ships with it

8 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

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.

workflow-skill-creator is a skill published in the GitHub repository SummerSec/SumSec-Skills (8 stars, last pushed 1mo ago), licensed Apache-2.0. It adds 129 tokens to every session and 1,405 once invoked, about $0.0005 per session on Opus 5.5. A static security scan graded it A with 0 findings. No closer match exists in the catalogue, so it is treated as the original; first seen 2026-08-31.
