Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, update or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or iterate on skill quality.

# Skill Creator Create, evaluate, and iterate on high-quality agent skills. This skill guides the entire lifecycle: planning what the skill should do, writing SKILL.md and reference files, scoring quality against a rubric, and iterating until the skill meets production standards. **Philosophy:** A great skill is not a long skill.

What does the skill-creator skill do?
Create new skills, modify and improve existing skills, and measure skill performance. Use when users want to create a skill from scratch, update or optimize an existing skill, run evals to test a skill, benchmark skill performance with variance analysis, or iterate on skill quality. Triggers: "create a skill", "make a new skill", "build a skill for", "write a skill that", "skill for doing X", "I want a skill to", "new skill", "design a skill", "scaffold a skill", "improve this skill", "optimize this skill", "this skill isn't working well", "evaluate this skill", "score this skill", "how good
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add himself65/finance-skills --skill skill-creator --agent claude-code` — it drops the skill into your project so the agent can pick it up. Swap the --agent value for codex, cursor or copilot if you use one of those.
Where does this skill come from?
From himself65/finance-skills, a repository with 3,115 stars. We read it straight from the repository tree rather than a submitted listing, so what you see here is what is actually published.
Is a popular skill a good skill?
Not necessarily. Stars measure attention, not adoption — a repository can trend for a week and be abandoned. That is why we show the weekly change from our own snapshots next to the total, instead of a single flattering number.
