Agent skill
skillkit-help
Pre-build orientation for skill creators. Answers "what are skills?", "should I make one?", and "is my skill good enough?" before you start building. Use for: understand skills, decide skills vs subagents, validate an existing skill. When ready to actually build, invoke /skillkit directly instead.

Routing
Detect which path the user needs and jump directly to it.
| User says | Route |
|---|---|
| "what are skills", "how do skills work", "explain", "understand", "not sure", "should I" | → Path A |
| "validate", "check", "review my skill", "is this good" | → Path B |
| "ready to build", "let's create", "make a skill" | Tell them: "You're ready — invoke /skillkit directly to start building." |
| Ambiguous | Ask: "Do you want to (A) understand how skills work, (B) validate an existing skill, or are you ready to build (invoke /skillkit)?" |
Path A: Understand How Skills Work
Goal: Build a mental model of skills — what they are, when to use them, and whether you actually need one — before starting to build.
Step 1 — Why skills exist
Load and read in full: knowledge/foundation/01-why-skills-exist.md
Summarize for the user: skills are reusable prompt-time instructions that extend your agent's behavior for specific tasks. They live in ~/.claude/skills/ and are invoked via /skill-name.
Step 2 — Skills vs subagents
Load and read: knowledge/foundation/02-skills-vs-subagents-comparison.md
Explain the difference with a concrete example:
- Skill: "When I type
/review-pr, load these code review instructions" - Subagent: "Spin up a separate agent with browser tools to scrape and summarize a URL"
Step 3 — Decision framework
Load and read: knowledge/foundation/03-skills-vs-subagents-decision-tree.md
Walk the user through the decision tree for their specific use case.
Step 4 — Platform constraints
Load and read: knowledge/foundation/06-platform-constraints.md
Cover the key rules: frontmatter requirements, size limits, trigger conditions.
Step 5 — Hand off to the builder
Tell the user: "You now have enough context to start building. Invoke /skillkit — it will guide you through the full creation workflow."
Path B: Validate an Existing Skill
Goal: Check an existing skill for quality issues before sharing or publishing.
Step 1 — Load validation standards
Load and read in full: knowledge/application/12-testing-and-validation.md
Step 2 — Run the checklist
Ask the user to share their SKILL.md content or path. Then check:
- Frontmatter:
name,description,categoryall present - Description has a clear trigger (when to invoke it)
- At least one concrete usage example in description or body
- No hardcoded secrets, API keys, or PII
- SKILL.md is under 500 lines (if over, recommend splitting)
- Sections are clearly delimited with
##headings - Invoke in Claude Code: does it fire correctly?
Report findings: pass/fail per item, specific fix for each failure.
Recommended Agent Skills
Expand your agent's capabilities with these related and highly-rated skills.
your-skill-name
One sentence: what this skill does and when to invoke it. Use for: [list 2-3 trigger phrases users would naturally type].
skillkit
Toolkit for creating and validating skills and subagents. Use when: creating a new skill (fast or full mode), validating an existing skill, deciding Skills vs Subagents, migrating docs to skills, estimating token cost, or running a security scan. Triggers: "create skill", "build skill", "validate skill", "new subagent", "skills vs subagents", "estimate tokens", "security scan".
short-prompt-guide
Strategy for creating efficient short-form video prompts. Use when creating filler shots, atmospheric scenes, or quick video clips that don't require full Production Brief methodology. Covers when to go short vs long, format+style upfront rule, and two approaches (Descriptive vs Directive) for compact yet coherent results.
arch-v
Video production workflow orchestrator for Veo 3. Guides users through creating professional video prompts via two paths - direct text-to-video OR image-to-video pipeline (Imagen 3/4 → Veo 3). Validates prompt completeness, checks conflicts, ensures all mandatory components present. Integrates camera-movements, great-prompt-anatomy, short-prompt-guide, long-prompt-guide, and imagine skills.
camera-movements
Standardized camera movement vocabulary for Veo 3 video generation. Use when creating video prompts that require specific camera movements, cinematography terminology, or when validating camera movement specifications. Provides authoritative reference for 50+ camera movements (Dolly, Arc, Crane, FPV Drone, Whip Pan, etc.) to ensure consistent, production-ready terminology.
storyteller
Transform abstract/metaphorical narrative into concrete visual story structure. USE WHEN: Converting poetic/theatrical narrative from diverse-content-gen into scene-by-scene visual breakdowns ready for screenwriter formatting. PIPELINE POSITION: diverse-content-gen → **storyteller** → screenwriter → production-validator → imagine → arch-v PRIMARY FUNCTION: Bridge the gap between "altar pribadi" (abstract metaphor) and "woman returns daily to same beach spot" (filmable scene). OUTPUT: Scene breakdown with concrete visual actions, preserved emotional core, and story logic documentation.
