Create or update an Arch Studio skill for Codex or Claude Code using the host's native skill maker when available, with Arch Studio governance and validation. Use when asked to create, package, adapt or revise a reusable skill.

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

# /as:skill-maker — Author a governed skill

Use the active host's native skill maker when available. If none exists, write the minimum skill in that host's supported format. The host owns generic authoring technique; this skill supplies Arch Studio's target, governance and acceptance requirements. Do not require a particular host maker or install an Arch Studio runtime.

Read [PATTERNS.md](../../PATTERNS.md) and follow its owning links as relevant: [architecture](../../docs/architecture.md), [host contract](../../docs/host-harness-contract.md), [host adapters](../../docs/host-adapters.md), [workspace model](../../docs/workspace-model.md), [terminology](../../rules/terminology.md), and [contribution rules](../../CONTRIBUTING.md). Read this component's [declaration](host-contract.json) (`skill:skill-maker`) and only its applicable modes from the [shared catalog](../../corpus/host-contracts.json). For MCP delivery, retrieve all required resources at the advertised release digest; resource references are not assumed local paths.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint

mdr add alpacalabsllc/skills-for-architects/skill-maker@sha256:bb7c29209cf93a87

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261014.50506eb, 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.
