Pm Skill Creator

Purpose

Walk through the full skill design process interactively, from raw idea or content to a structured, repo-compliant SKILL.md draft. Asks adaptive questions to determine skill type, scope, structure, and content, then generates a ready-to-validate draft.

This skill is the conversational complement to skill-authoring-workflow. That skill defines the process and validation gates. This one sits with you and figures out what to build before you build it.

Input

Bring the seed for the skill you want to design, half-formed is fine; shaping it is this skill's job:

• Works best with: the idea, framework, or raw content (notes, prompt sequence, article) the skill should capture
• Also useful: the skill type you suspect it is, who it's for, and any existing skills it should relate to

If you supply this inline with your request (e.g., "help me design a skill from my pricing-tiers framework"), the conversation uses that as the answer to Q1 and moves on, it won't re-ask. With no input, it opens by asking what you want the skill to help someone do.

Example: Use pm-skill-creator: I have a decision tree for choosing north-star metrics, help me shape it into a skill.

Key Concepts

When to Use This vs. Other Authoring Tools

Tool	Best When
This skill (skill-creator)	You have an idea or raw content and need help shaping it into the right structure through conversation
skill-authoring-workflow	You already know what to build and need the process checklist and validation steps
scripts/build-a-skill.sh	You know the structure and want a terminal wizard to collect sections
scripts/add-a-skill.sh	You have a source document and want AI-assisted generation end-to-end
