SKILL.md

${var} — What skill to build. If empty, picks from issues or capability gaps.

If ${var} is set, build that specific skill instead of auto-selecting.

Your task is to design and build a new reusable skill.

Steps

  1. Decide what to build. Check open issues (gh issue list) and memory/MEMORY.md for ideas. Pick the most useful one, or reason about what capability gap exists.

  2. Research. Search the web or fetch documentation for any APIs or patterns needed.

  3. Design the skill. Define:

    • Name and description
    • What it does step by step
    • What environment variables it needs
  4. Write a skill file. Create a new .md file in skills/ with:

    • Frontmatter (name, description, schedule, commits, permissions)
    • A clear prompt describing the task steps
    • Documentation of required env vars
  5. Update memory. Record what skill was built and when.

  6. Send a notification via ./notify with what was built and what it does.

Guidelines

  • Keep skills focused — one skill, one job.
  • Include clear step-by-step instructions in the prompt.
  • Document any required environment variables.
