description	Create and maintain repository skills for adonis-skills. Use when users ask to scaffold a new skill under skills/, generate agents/openai.yaml, run skill validation, refresh web index data, or standardize the skill authoring workflow.

Repo Skill Creator

Create and maintain repository skills with a triple workflow: creation mode, path-finalize mode, and auto-discover finalize mode.

Trigger Rules

1. If the user provides a skills/* path and indicates the skill is already generated/copied, run path-finalize mode directly without additional confirmation.
2. If the user invokes this skill directly without providing a path, run auto-discover finalize mode (skills:finalize:new) first.
3. If no new skill can be discovered during auto-discover mode, fall back to creation mode (skills:new) and then continue finalize.

Mode A: Create New Skill

Primary command (recommended):

pnpm skills:new

Manual creation commands:

pnpm skills:init <skill-name> --path skills --resources scripts,references
pnpm skills:finalize -- skills/<skill-name>

Mode B: Finalize Existing Skill by Path

When the user pastes a path under skills/*, run:

pnpm skills:finalize -- <skill-path>

Examples:

pnpm skills:finalize -- skills/code-inspector-init
pnpm skills:finalize -- /Users/adonis/coding/adonis-skills2/skills/code-inspector-init/

Finalize pipeline is fixed and must run in order:

1. pnpm skills:quick-validate skills/<skill-slug>
2. pnpm skills:validate
3. pnpm skills:index

Mode C: Auto Discover + Finalize + Stage

When user does not pass a skills/* path, run:

pnpm skills:finalize:new

Behavior contract:

1. Discover newly added skill candidates from git status --short --untracked-files=all:
   • include A (index-added) and ?? (untracked)
   • only accept slugs where skills/<slug>/SKILL.md itself is in A or ??
2. Finalize each discovered slug in stable sorted order:
   • pnpm skills:finalize -- skills/<slug>
   • stop immediately on first failure
3. Stage only related files after all finalize runs succeed:
   • git add skills/<slug> for each processed slug
   • git add apps/web/src/generated/skills-index.json when changed
4. If no new skill is discovered:
   • auto-run pnpm skills:new
   • re-scan for newly added skills and continue this mode

Scope Boundaries

• Do not auto-run pnpm skills:openai-yaml unless explicitly requested.
• Do not auto-run local install/sync (skills:install:local, skills:test:local) unless explicitly requested.
• Do not use git add -A; only stage skill-related files from this workflow.

Output Contract

When executing this skill, always return:

1. Commands executed (or planned commands in dry-run).
2. Success/failure status.
3. Detected/processed skill slugs and staged file paths.
4. Next-step suggestion only when useful (for example, local agent testing via pnpm skills:test:local).

Skill Rules

1. Use lowercase hyphen-case skill names.
2. Keep SKILL.md frontmatter valid with non-empty name and description.
3. frontmatter.description must be English-only (ASCII characters only), and should clearly include when to use the skill.
4. Add optional directories (scripts/, references/, assets/) only when needed.
5. Re-run validation and index generation after updates and before commit.
