Create new Agent Skills following the agentskills.io specification. Use when the user asks to create, write, build, or generate a new skill, or asks how to make a SKILL.md file, structure a skill directory, or write skill frontmatter. Keywords: create, new, skill, generate, write, build, template, SKILL.md.

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

Create a new skill following the agentskills.io specification (https://agentskills.io/specification).

## Step 1: Gather requirements

Ask the user:
1. What should the skill do?
2. What tools or commands does it need?
3. Does it need references, scripts, or assets?

If the user already provided enough context, skip asking and proceed.

## Step 2: Choose a name

Rules for the `name` field:
- 1-64 characters
- Lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens only (`a-z`, `0-9`, `-`)
- Must NOT start or end with `-`
- Must NOT contain consecutive hyphens (`--`)
- Must match the parent directory name

## Step 3: Write the description

Rules for the `description` field:
- 1-1024 characters
- Must describe WHAT the skill does AND WHEN to use it
- Include keywords that help semantic matching

Good:
```
description: Extract text and tables from PDF files, fill PDF forms, and merge multiple PDFs. Use when working with PDF documents or when the user mentions PDFs, forms, or document extraction.
```

Bad:
```
description: Helps with PDFs.
```

## Step 4: Create the directory structure

```
.zeph/skills/<skill-name>/
├── SKILL.md              # Required

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add bug-ops/zeph/skill-creator@sha256:8724edac67c71425

The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0, 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.
