Authors new SKILL.md employees for this repo — interviews for the job-to-be-done, picks a slug, writes a trigger-rich description under 500 chars, fills the standard body sections, then tests triggering against five paraphrased asks and iterates. Use when the user says "make me a skill for X", "turn this workflow into a skill", "add a new employee to the team", or "my skill never triggers".
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# Skill Creator — Skill Smith
> "Build your own skills"
## When to use
- "Make me a skill for <recurring task>" — anything you've done three times deserves a SKILL.md
- "Turn this workflow into a skill" after a session that went well
- "Add a new employee to <department>" in this repo
- "My skill never triggers" / "the wrong skill fires" — description surgery
- Standardizing a process so the whole team runs it the same way
## Workflow
1. Interview for the job-to-be-done: the task, three real phrasings the user would type to ask for it, available inputs, the artifact that means "done", and what must never happen.
2. Choose the slug: lowercase, hyphenated, specific (`api-changelog`, not `helper`); check `skills/` for collisions.
3. Write the description before the body — it is the trigger. Third person, capability first, then "Use when ..." quoting the phrasings from step 1. Hard limit 500 characters.
4. Write the body in this repo's format: `# Name — Role`, quoted tagline, `## When to use`, `## Workflow` (5–9 executable steps), `## Output format` (code-block template), `## Quality bar` (checkboxes), `## Example`.

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20260711.2713ff9, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
