## When to use this skill

Use this skill when you need to:
- **Create new Claude skills** with proper structure and metadata
- **Generate skill packages** ready for distribution
- **Automatically share created skills** on Slack channels for team visibility
- **Validate skill structure** before sharing
- **Package and distribute** skills to your team

Also use this skill when:
- **User says he wants to create/share his skill** 

This skill is ideal for:
- Creating skills as part of team workflows
- Building internal tools that need skill creation + team notification
- Automating the skill development pipeline
- Collaborative skill creation with team notifications

## Key Features

### 1. Skill Creation
- Creates properly structured skill directories with SKILL.md
- Generates standardized scripts/, references/, and assets/ directories
- Auto-generates YAML frontmatter with required metadata
- Enforces naming conventions (hyphen-case)

### 2. Skill Validation
- Validates SKILL.md format and required fields
- Checks naming conventions
- Ensures metadata completeness before packaging

### 3. Skill Packaging
- Creates distributable zip files
- Includes all skill assets and documentation
- Runs validation automatically before packaging

### 4. Slack Integration via Rube
- Automatically sends created skill information to designated Slack channels
- Shares skill metadata (name, description, link)
- Posts skill summary for team discovery
- Provides direct links to skill files

## How It Works

1. **Initialization**: Provide skill name and description
2. **Creation**: Skill directory is created with proper structure
3. **Validation**: Skill metadata is validated for correctness
4. **Packaging**: Skill is packaged into a distributable format
5. **Slack Notification**: Skill details are posted to your team's Slack channel

## Example Usage

```
When you ask Claude to create a skill called "pdf-analyzer":
1. Creates /skill-pdf-analyzer/ with SKILL.md template
2. Generates structured directories (scripts/, references/, assets/)
3. Validates the skill structure
4. Packages the skill as a zip file
5. Posts to Slack: "New Skill Created: pdf-analyzer - Advanced PDF analysis and extraction capabilities"
```

## Integration with Rube

This skill leverages Rube for:
- **SLACK_SEND_MESSAGE**: Posts skill information to team channels
- **SLACK_POST_MESSAGE_WITH_BLOCKS**: Shares rich formatted skill metadata
- **SLACK_FIND_CHANNELS**: Discovers target channels for skill announcements

## Requirements

- Slack workspace connection via Rube
- Write access to skill creation directory
- Python 3.7+ for skill creation scripts
- Target Slack channel for skill notifications

Overview

This skill creates new Claude skills with a standardized structure and automatically shares them on Slack using Rube for seamless team collaboration and discovery. It generates ready-to-distribute packages, validates required metadata, and posts concise announcements with links to the created skill. The workflow reduces manual packaging and improves team visibility for newly created skills.

How this skill works

Provide a skill name and description to initialize the process. The skill scaffolds a directory with standardized folders, a manifest and documentation, and auto-populates YAML frontmatter metadata. It runs validation checks to ensure naming conventions and required fields are present, packages the skill into a distributable zip, and then posts a summary to configured Slack channels via Rube.

When to use it

When you need to create a new Claude skill with consistent structure and metadata
When you want automated validation and packaging before distribution
When you want to notify your team in Slack about newly created skills
When integrating skill creation into CI or developer workflows
When you need an audit-ready package for internal sharing or review

Best practices

Use hyphen-case names and concise descriptions to ensure consistency
Provide complete metadata (title, description, tags, author) before packaging
Run creation from a controlled directory with write access to avoid conflicts
Configure a dedicated Slack channel for skill announcements to centralize discovery
Automate frequent tasks (validation, packaging, posting) in CI pipelines

Example use cases

Create a pdf-analyzer skill: scaffold files, validate metadata, package, and announce to #tools
Onboard a team member by generating a template skill and posting it for review
Automate weekly skill drops: generate, validate, package, and broadcast multiple skills
Integrate into a release pipeline to package internal tools and notify stakeholders
Create internal demos or prototypes quickly with standardized structure and team visibility

FAQ

What Slack permissions are required?

Rube needs permission to post messages and find channels in your workspace; a workspace-level token or app installation with messaging scopes is required.

Can I customize the announcement format?

Yes. The announcement supports plain messages and block-based rich formatting via Rube so you can adjust summary fields and links.
