Add New Skills to Workflow

Add skills from GitHub to an existing workflow and update all related documentation.

Workflow

Step 1: Download Skills

Use skill-downloader to download skills from GitHub:

python .claude/skills/skill-downloader/scripts/download_from_github.py <repo-url> <skill-path> --output <workflow-path>/.claude/skills/

Parse GitHub URL:

https://github.com/user/repo/blob/main/path/to/skill

→ repo:

https://github.com/user/repo

, skill-path:

path/to/skill

https://github.com/user/repo/tree/main/.claude/skills/my-skill

→ repo:

https://github.com/user/repo

, skill-path:

.claude/skills/my-skill

Example:

# For URL: https://github.com/XIYO/zheon/blob/main/.claude/skills/slidev
python .claude/skills/skill-downloader/scripts/download_from_github.py https://github.com/XIYO/zheon .claude/skills/slidev --output ./workflows/talk-to-slidev-workflow/.claude/skills/

# Use --force to overwrite existing
python .claude/skills/skill-downloader/scripts/download_from_github.py <repo> <path> --output <target> --force

Step 2: Read Downloaded Skill

Read the downloaded

SKILL.md

to understand:

Skill name and description
What category it belongs to
How it fits into the workflow pipeline

Step 3: Update skill-source.json

Add the new skill entry to

workflows/<name>/.claude/skill-source.json

{
  "skill-name": {
    "source": "https://github.com/user/repo",
    "path": "path/to/skill"
  }
}

Step 4: Update Documentation

Update these files (all that exist for the workflow):

File	Updates Required
`workflows/<name>/.claude/skill-source.json`	Add new skill source entry
`workflows/<name>/README.md`	Skill count, skill table, pipeline
`workflows/<name>/README_cn.md`	Same as above (Chinese)
`workflows/<name>/AGENTS.md`	Available skills list, recommended sequences
`website/content/en/workflows/<name>.mdx`	Skill count, skill table, pipeline
`website/content/zh/workflows/<name>.mdx`	Same as above (Chinese)
`README.md` (root)	Skill count in workflow table
`README_cn.md` (root)	Same as above (Chinese)
