# create-skills
Used when you notice patterns or workflows that could improve efficiency but have no skill covering them.
## Principle
Not every repetitive task needs to become a skill. Ask first: is this pattern general enough to warrant abstraction?
> See `{baseDir}/docs/standard.md` for skill structure and writing requirements.
## Process
### 1. Identify the Pattern
- Record the repeating sequence of operations
- Analyze: what are you doing repeatedly across tasks?
- Evaluate: is this operation general-purpose or a one-off special case?
### 2. Assess Whether It's Worth Making a Skill
**Worth doing when:**
- The same operation recurs across different agents/workspaces
- The steps are fixed, results are predictable
- Involves external system calls (git, keycloak, file ops, etc.)
**Not worth doing when:**
- One-off task
- Steps vary depending on context
- Purely conversational/analytical work
### 3. Design the Skill
- **Name:** `{action}-{target}` (e.g., `git-clone-repo`, `keycloak-create-user`)
- **SKILL.md contents:**
- Description: what this skill does
- Use cases: when to use it
- Scripts: all related scripts and how to call them
- **Scripts:**
- Place under `scripts/`
- Each script has a single responsibility
- Provide `--help` or `-h` support
### 4. Implement
- Write the scripts, verify they work
- Write the SKILL.md
- Test locally
### 5. Submit
Call `{baseDir}/scripts/promote-improvements` to push to your branch.
Commit message includes: skill name, what it does, usage example.
Notify hang with the new skill's purpose.
