SKILL.md

Learn from quality GitHub projects to create custom agent skills.

Guides you through searching GitHub for well-maintained projects (100+ stars, recent updates) that solve a specific problem, then presents top candidates for your review

Walks through a structured deep-dive process: reading READMEs, examining core source files, extracting algorithms and patterns, and identifying best practices

Encodes learned knowledge directly into a new skill via skill-creator, rather than simply wrapping an existing tool

Requires explicit user confirmation at project selection and before skill creation to ensure alignment with your intent

Skill from GitHub

When users want to accomplish something, search GitHub for quality projects that solve the problem, understand them deeply, then create a skill based on that knowledge.

When to Use

When users describe a task and you want to find existing tools/projects to learn from:

"I want to be able to convert markdown to PDF"

"Help me analyze sentiment in customer reviews"

"I need to generate API documentation from code"
