# Skill Create
|
|
|
|
## Purpose
|
|
This skill automates the creation of a new Claude Code-compatible Skill inside the Betty Framework. It scaffolds the directory structure, generates the `skill.yaml` manifest file, and registers the skill in the internal registry. Use this when you want to add a new skill quickly and consistently.
|
|
|
|
## Instructions
|
|
1. Run the script `skill_create.py` with the following arguments:
|
|
```bash
|
|
python skill_create.py <skill_name> "<description>" [--inputs input1,input2] [--outputs output1,output2]
|
|
2. The script will create a folder under /skills/<skill_name>/ with:
|
|
* skill.yaml manifest (populated with version 0.1.0 and status draft)
|
|
* SKILL.md containing the description
|
|
* A registration entry added to registry/skills.json
|
|
|
|
3. The new manifest will be validated via the skill.define skill.
|
|
|
|
4. After creation, review the generated skill.yaml for correctness, edit if necessary, and then mark status: active when ready for use.
|
|
|
|
## Example
|
|
|
|
```bash
|
|
python skill_create.py workflow.compose "Compose and orchestrate multi-step workflows" --inputs workflow.yaml,context.schema --outputs execution_plan.json
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
This will generate:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
skills/
|
|
workflow.compose/
|
|
skill.yaml
|
|
README.md
|
|
registry/skills.json ← updated with workflow.compose entry
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Implementation Notes
|
|
|
|
* The script uses forward-slash paths (e.g., `skills/workflow.compose/skill.yaml`) to remain cross-platform.
|
|
* The manifest file format must include fields: `name`, `version`, `description`, `inputs`, `outputs`, `dependencies`, `status`.
|
|
* This skill depends on `skill.define` (for validation) and `context.schema` (for input/output schema support).
|
|
* After running, commit the changes to Git; version control provides traceability of new skills. |
