Create a Skill

Start a valid draft Skill from a template, then add instructions and metadata before review or publication.

Audience
Vibecoders, super-users, and workspace builders creating new Skills.
Updated

The creation flow gives you a valid starting package so you can focus on useful instructions instead of hand-building manifest state.

Create from a template

  1. 1

    Choose a starter

    Pick one of the draft templates for common work such as code review, product planning, debugging, documentation, research, or deployment prep.

  2. 2

    Name the Skill and slug

    Use a readable name and stable slug. The slug becomes the durable handle for install, check, update, and references.

  3. 3

    Edit instructions and metadata

    Keep the Skill instructions focused. Use tags, category, stage, risk, and compatibility to make the package discoverable and reviewable.

Drafts are not the same as approved versions

A draft can be useful without being installable. Owners/admins should approve versions before team installation so local harnesses do not drift onto unreviewed instructions.

  • Import Skills

    Import turns an existing Skill into a validated Fygment package. Start with one selected package or public source and review the validation result before broader migration.

  • Review and approve Skills

    Governance is the difference between a shared Skill library and a loose pile of files. Review decisions decide what can be installed and trusted.

  • Security and privacy boundaries

    The public launch trust model is metadata-minimizing: keep customer Skill content, package bodies, prompts, secrets, tokens, and raw local paths out of admin, support, analytics, and billing surfaces.
