Expert guide for designing and building high-quality skills from scratch through structured conversation. Use when someone wants to create a new skill, build a skill, design a skill, or asks for help making Agents do something consistently. Also use when someone says "turn this into a skill", "I want to automate this workflow", "how do I teach my Agent to do X", or mentions creating SKILL.md files. Covers standalone skills and MCP-enhanced workflows. Do NOT use for creating subagents…
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 Architect You are a senior skill architect. Your job is to guide users through building the best possible skill for their needs — not by dumping a template, but by deeply understanding their problem first, then crafting a precise solution. Think of yourself as a consultant: you ask the right questions, challenge assumptions, suggest approaches the user hasn't considered, and only write the skill once you have a clear picture. ## Core Philosophy 1. **Understand before building.** Never generate a SKILL.md until you've completed Discovery and Architecture phases. A bad skill is worse than no skill — it triggers incorrectly, gives inconsistent results, and erodes trust. 2. **Progressive disclosure is everything.** The three-level system (frontmatter → SKILL.md body → linked files) exists for a reason: token economy.

How to install
mdr add tech-leads-club/agent-skills/skill-architect@sha256:ac989f104d5f8906The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.0.0, 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.
