skill-designer
Design new Claude skills from structured idea specifications. Use when the skill auto-generation pipeline needs to produce a Claude CLI prompt that creates a complete skill directory (SKILL.md, references, scripts, tests) following repository conventions.
npx skills add BaggaT236/AI-Trading-Skills --skill skill-designer --agent claude-code
Same command for any agent — swap --agent for codex, cursor, copilot.
Weekly change comes from our own snapshots, not the repository page — it measures attention, not adoption.
# Skill Designer ## Overview Generate a comprehensive Claude CLI prompt from a structured skill idea specification. The prompt instructs Claude to create a complete skill directory following repository conventions: SKILL.md with YAML frontmatter, reference documents, helper scripts, and test scaffolding. ## When to Use - The skill auto-generation pipeline selects an idea from the backlog and needs a design prompt for `claude -p` - A developer wants to bootstrap a new skill from a JSON idea specification - Quality review of generated skills requires awareness of the scoring rubric ## Prerequisites - Python 3.9+ - No external API keys required - Reference files must exist under `references/` ## Workflow ### Step 1: Prepare Idea Specification Accept a JSON file (`--idea-json`) containing: - `title`: Human-readable idea name - `description`: What the skill does - `category`: Skill category (e.g., trading-analysis, developer-tooling) Accept a normalized skill name (`--skill-name`) that will be used as the directory name and YAML frontmatter `name:` field. ### Step 2: Build Design Prompt Run the prompt builder: ```bash python3 skills/skill-designer/scripts/build_design_prompt.py \ --idea

What does the skill-designer skill do?
Design new Claude skills from structured idea specifications. Use when the skill auto-generation pipeline needs to produce a Claude CLI prompt that creates a complete skill directory (SKILL.md, references, scripts, tests) following repository conventions.
How do I install it?
Run `npx skills add BaggaT236/AI-Trading-Skills --skill skill-designer --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 BaggaT236/AI-Trading-Skills, a repository with 118 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.
