Add Skill Templates

Purpose

This skill standardizes the process of adding new Agent Skill templates to the

meta-agent-skills

framework. It ensures that new templates follow the required structure for automatic instantiation by the Meta-Agent.

When to Use

• When you want to add a new standard capability (e.g.,

  deploy-k8s

  ,

  performance-bench

  ) to the

  meta-agent-skills

  framework.
• When existing templates need to be cloned or used as a basis for a new one.

Instructions

1. Identify New Skill Requirements:

   • Determine the name and purpose of the new skill.
   • Identify the primary commands that should be included in its Commands table.

2. Use Boilerplate:

   • Read the boilerplate template from

     assets/skill-template-boilerplate.md

     .
   • Create a new file in

     skills/meta-agent-skills/assets/templates/skills/

     named

     <skill-name>.md

     .

3. Configure Template:

   • Fill in the YAML frontmatter (

     name

     ,

     description

     ).
   • Use placeholders like

     {{ order }}

     ,

     {{ component }}

     ,

     {{ path }}

     ,

     {{ layer }}

     ,

     {{ command }}

     , and

     {{ description }}

     in the Commands table.
   • Refer to references/conventions.md for guidance on placeholder usage and layer naming.

4. Register Capability:

   • Update the

     Capabilities Generated

     section in

     skills/meta-agent-skills/SKILL.md

     to include the new skill.

5. Verify:

   • Ensure the template is readable and follows the format of existing templates like

     lint-fix.md

     .
