# Skill Authoring Procedure
Follow these steps to generate a skill that adheres to the agentskills.io specification and progressive disclosure principles.
## Step 1: Initialize and Validate Metadata
1. Define a unique `name`: 1-64 characters, lowercase, numbers, and single hyphens only.
2. Draft a `description`: Max 1,024 characters, written in the third person, including negative triggers.
3. **Execute Validation Script:** Run the validation script to ensure compliance before proceeding:
`python scripts/validate-metadata.py --name "[name]" --description "[description]"`
4. If the script returns an error, self-correct the metadata based on the `stderr` output and re-run until successful.
## Step 2: Structure the Directory
1. Create the root directory using the validated `name`.
2. Initialize the following subdirectories:
* `scripts/`: For tiny CLI tools and deterministic logic.
* `references/`: For flat (one-level deep) context like schemas or API docs.
* `assets/`: For output templates, JSON schemas, or static files.
3. Ensure no human-centric files (README.md, INSTALLATION.md) are created.
## Step 3: Draft Core Logic (SKILL.md)
1. Use the template in `assets/SKILL.template.md` as the starting point.
2. Write all instructions in the **third-person imperative** (e.g., "Extract the text," "Run the build").
3. **Enforce Progressive Disclosure:**
* Keep the main logic under 500 lines.
* If a procedure requires a large schema or complex rule set, move it to `references/`.
* Command the agent to read the specific file only when needed: *"Read references/api-spec.md to identify the correct endpoint."*
## Step 4: Identify and Bundle Scripts
1. Identify "fragile" tasks (regex, complex parsing, or repetitive boilerplate).
2. Outline a single-purpose script for the `scripts/` directory.
3. Ensure the script uses standard output (stdout/stderr) to communicate success or failure to the agent.
## Step 5: Final Logic Validation
1. Review the `SKILL.md` for "hallucination gaps" (points where the agent is forced to guess).
2. Verify all file paths are **relative** and use forward slashes (`/`).
3. Cross-reference the final output against `references/checklist.md`.
## Error Handling
* **Metadata Failure:** If `scripts/validate-metadata.py` fails, identify the specific error (e.g., "STYLE ERROR") and rewrite the field to remove first/second person pronouns.
* **Context Bloat:** If the draft exceeds 500 lines, extract the largest procedural block and move it to a file in `references/`.
