# Skill Creator
This skill provides guidance for creating effective Opencode Agent Skills.
## About Skills
Skills are modular, self-contained packages that extend Opencode's capabilities by providing
specialized knowledge, workflows, and tools. Think of them as "onboarding guides" for specific
domains or tasks—they transform Opencode from a general-purpose agent into a specialized agent
equipped with procedural knowledge that no model can fully possess.
### What Skills Provide
1. Specialized workflows - Multi-step procedures for specific domains
2. Tool integrations - Instructions for working with specific file formats or APIs
3. Domain expertise - Company-specific knowledge, schemas, business logic
4. Bundled resources - Scripts, references, and assets for complex and repetitive tasks
## Core Principles
### Concise is Key
The context window is a public good. Skills share the context window with everything else Opencode needs: system prompt, conversation history, other Skills' metadata, and the actual user request.
**Default assumption: Opencode is already very smart.** Only add context Opencode doesn't already have. Challenge each piece of information: "Does Opencode really need this explanation?" and "Does this paragraph justify its token cost?"
Prefer concise examples over verbose explanations.
### Set Appropriate Degrees of Freedom
Match the level of specificity to the task's fragility and variability:
**High freedom (text-based instructions)**: Use when multiple approaches are valid, decisions depend on context, or heuristics guide the approach.
**Medium freedom (pseudocode or scripts with parameters)**: Use when a preferred pattern exists, some variation is acceptable, or configuration affects behavior.
**Low freedom (specific scripts, few parameters)**: Use when operations are fragile and error-prone, consistency is critical, or a specific sequence must be followed.
Think of Opencode as exploring a path: a narrow bridge with cliffs needs specific guardrails (low freedom), while an open field allows many routes (high freedom).
### Anatomy of a Skill
Every skill consists of a required SKILL.md file and optional bundled resources:
```
skill-name/
├── SKILL.md (required)
│ ├── YAML frontmatter metadata (required)
│ │ ├── name: (required)
│ │ ├── description: (required)
│ │ └── compatibility: opencode (recommended)
│ └── Markdown instructions (required)
└── Bundled Resources (optional)
├── scripts/ - Executable code (Python/Bash/etc.)
├── references/ - Documentation intended to be loaded into context as needed
└── assets/ - Files used in output (templates, icons, fonts, etc.)
```
#### SKILL.md (required)
Every SKILL.md consists of:
- **Frontmatter** (YAML): Contains `name` and `description` fields. These are the only fields that Opencode reads to determine when the skill gets used, thus it is very important to be clear and comprehensive in describing what the skill is, and when it should be used.
- **Body** (Markdown): Instructions and guidance for using the skill. Only loaded AFTER the skill triggers (if at all).
#### Bundled Resources (optional)
##### Scripts (`scripts/`)
Executable code (Python/Bash/etc.) for tasks that require deterministic reliability or are repeatedly rewritten.
- **When to include**: When the same code is being rewritten repeatedly or deterministic reliability is needed
- **Example**: `scripts/rotate_pdf.py` for PDF rotation tasks
- **Benefits**: Token efficient, deterministic, may be executed without loading into context
- **Note**: Scripts may still need to be read by Opencode for patching or environment-specific adjustments
##### References (`references/`)
Documentation and reference material intended to be loaded as needed into context to inform Opencode's process and thinking.
- **When to include**: For documentation that Opencode should reference while working
- **Examples**: `references/finance.md` for financial schemas, `references/mnda.md` for company NDA template, `references/policies.md` for company policies, `references/api_docs.md` for API specifications
- **Use cases**: Database schemas, API documentation, domain knowledge, company policies, detailed workflow guides
- **Benefits**: Keeps SKILL.md lean, loaded only when Opencode determines it's needed
- **Best practice**: If files are large (>10k words), include grep search patterns in SKILL.md
- **Avoid duplication**: Information should live in either SKILL.md or references files, not both. Prefer references files for detailed information unless it's truly core to the skill—this keeps SKILL.md lean while making information discoverable without hogging the context window. Keep only essential procedural instructions and workflow guidance in SKILL.md; move detailed reference material, schemas, and examples to references files.
##### Assets (`assets/`)
Files not intended to be loaded into context, but rather used within the output Opencode produces.
- **When to include**: When the skill needs files that will be used in the final output
- **Examples**: `assets/logo.png` for brand assets, `assets/slides.pptx` for PowerPoint templates, `assets/frontend-template/` for HTML/React boilerplate, `assets/font.ttf` for typography
- **Use cases**: Templates, images, icons, boilerplate code, fonts, sample documents that get copied or modified
- **Benefits**: Separates output resources from documentation, enables Opencode to use files without loading them into context
#### What to Not Include in a Skill
A skill should only contain essential files that directly support its functionality. Do NOT create extraneous documentation or auxiliary files, including:
- README.md
- INSTALLATION_GUIDE.md
- QUICK_REFERENCE.md
- CHANGELOG.md
- etc.
The skill should only contain the information needed for an AI agent to do the job at hand. It should not contain auxilary context about the process that went into creating it, setup and testing procedures, user-facing documentation, etc. Creating additional documentation files just adds clutter and confusion.
### Progressive Disclosure Design Principle
Skills use a three-level loading system to manage context efficiently:
1. **Metadata (name + description)** - Always in context (~100 words)
2. **SKILL.md body** - When skill triggers (<5k words)
3. **Bundled resources** - As needed by Opencode (Unlimited because scripts can be executed without reading into context window)
#### Progressive Disclosure Patterns
Keep SKILL.md body to the essentials and under 500 lines to minimize context bloat. Split content into separate files when approaching this limit. When splitting out content into other files, it is very important to reference them from SKILL.md and describe clearly when to read them, to ensure the reader of the skill knows they exist and when to use them.
**Key principle:** When a skill supports multiple variations, frameworks, or options, keep only the core workflow and selection guidance in SKILL.md. Move variant-specific details (patterns, examples, configuration) into separate reference files.
**Pattern 1: High-level guide with references**
```markdown
# PDF Processing
## Quick start
Extract text with pdfplumber:
[code example]
## Advanced features
- **Form filling**: See [FORMS.md](FORMS.md) for complete guide
- **API reference**: See [REFERENCE.md](REFERENCE.md) for all methods
- **Examples**: See [EXAMPLES.md](EXAMPLES.md) for common patterns
```
Opencode loads FORMS.md, REFERENCE.md, or EXAMPLES.md only when needed.
**Pattern 2: Domain-specific organization**
For Skills with multiple domains, organize content by domain to avoid loading irrelevant context:
```
bigquery-skill/
├── SKILL.md (overview and navigation)
└── reference/
├── finance.md (revenue, billing metrics)
├── sales.md (opportunities, pipeline)
├── product.md (API usage, features)
└── marketing.md (campaigns, attribution)
```
When a user asks about sales metrics, Opencode only reads sales.md.
Similarly, for skills supporting multiple frameworks or variants, organize by variant:
```
cloud-deploy/
├── SKILL.md (workflow + provider selection)
└── references/
├── aws.md (AWS deployment patterns)
├── gcp.md (GCP deployment patterns)
└── azure.md (Azure deployment patterns)
```
When the user chooses AWS, Opencode only reads aws.md.
**Pattern 3: Conditional details**
Show basic content, link to advanced content:
```markdown
# DOCX Processing
## Creating documents
Use docx-js for new documents. See [DOCX-JS.md](DOCX-JS.md).
## Editing documents
For simple edits, modify the XML directly.
**For tracked changes**: See [REDLINING.md](REDLINING.md)
**For OOXML details**: See [OOXML.md](OOXML.md)
```
Opencode reads REDLINING.md or OOXML.md only when the user needs those features.
**Important guidelines:**
- **Avoid deeply nested references** - Keep references one level deep from SKILL.md. All reference files should link directly from SKILL.md.
- **Structure longer reference files** - For files longer than 100 lines, include a table of contents at the top so Opencode can see the full scope when previewing.
## Skill Creation Process
Skill creation involves these steps:
1. Understand the skill with concrete examples
2. Plan reusable skill contents (scripts, references, assets)
3. Initialize the skill (run init_skill.py)
4. Edit the skill (implement resources and write SKILL.md)
5. Package the skill (optional - for distribution)
6. Iterate based on real usage
Follow these steps in order, skipping only if there is a clear reason why they are not applicable.
### Step 1: Understanding the Skill with Concrete Examples
Skip this step only when the skill's usage patterns are already clearly understood. It remains valuable even when working with an existing skill.
To create an effective skill, clearly understand concrete examples of how the skill will be used. This understanding can come from either direct user examples or generated examples that are validated with user feedback.
For example, when building an image-editor skill, relevant questions include:
- "What functionality should the image-editor skill support? Editing, rotating, anything else?"
- "Can you give some examples of how this skill would be used?"
- "I can imagine users asking for things like 'Remove the red-eye from this image' or 'Rotate this image'. Are there other ways you imagine this skill being used?"
- "What would a user say that should trigger this skill?"
To avoid overwhelming users, avoid asking too many questions in a single message. Start with the most important questions and follow up as needed for better effectiveness.
Conclude this step when there is a clear sense of the functionality the skill should support.
### Step 2: Planning the Reusable Skill Contents
To turn concrete examples into an effective skill, analyze each example by:
1. Considering how to execute on the example from scratch
2. Identifying what scripts, references, and assets would be helpful when executing these workflows repeatedly
Example: When building a `pdf-editor` skill to handle queries like "Help me rotate this PDF," the analysis shows:
1. Rotating a PDF requires re-writing the same code each time
2. A `scripts/rotate_pdf.py` script would be helpful to store in the skill
Example: When designing a `frontend-webapp-builder` skill for queries like "Build me a todo app" or "Build me a dashboard to track my steps," the analysis shows:
1. Writing a frontend webapp requires the same boilerplate HTML/React each time
2. An `assets/hello-world/` template containing the boilerplate HTML/React project files would be helpful to store in the skill
Example: When building a `big-query` skill to handle queries like "How many users have logged in today?" the analysis shows:
1. Querying BigQuery requires re-discovering the table schemas and relationships each time
2. A `references/schema.md` file documenting the table schemas would be helpful to store in the skill
To establish the skill's contents, analyze each concrete example to create a list of the reusable resources to include: scripts, references, and assets.
### Step 3: Initializing the Skill
At this point, it is time to actually create the skill.
Skip this step only if the skill being developed already exists, and iteration is needed. In this case, continue to the next step.
When creating a new skill from scratch, always run the `init_skill.py` script. The script conveniently generates a new template skill directory that automatically includes everything a skill requires, making the skill creation process much more efficient and reliable.
Usage:
```bash
scripts/init_skill.py <skill-name> --path <output-directory>
```
For Opencode skills, use:
```bash
scripts/init_skill.py <skill-name> --path ~/.config/opencode/skill
```
The script:
- Creates the skill directory at the specified path
- Generates a SKILL.md template with proper frontmatter and TODO placeholders
- Creates example resource directories: `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/`
- Adds example files in each directory that can be customized or deleted
After initialization, customize or remove the generated SKILL.md and example files as needed.
### Step 4: Edit the Skill
When editing the (newly-generated or existing) skill, remember that the skill is being created for Opencode to use. Include information that would be beneficial and non-obvious to Opencode. Consider what procedural knowledge, domain-specific details, or reusable assets would help Opencode execute these tasks more effectively.
#### Learn Proven Design Patterns
Consult these helpful guides based on your skill's needs:
- **Multi-step processes**: See references/workflows.md for sequential workflows and conditional logic
- **Specific output formats or quality standards**: See references/output-patterns.md for template and example patterns
These files contain established best practices for effective skill design.
#### Start with Reusable Skill Contents
To begin implementation, start with the reusable resources identified above: `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` files. Note that this step may require user input. For example, when implementing a `brand-guidelines` skill, the user may need to provide brand assets or templates to store in `assets/`, or documentation to store in `references/`.
Added scripts must be tested by actually running them to ensure there are no bugs and that the output matches what is expected. If there are many similar scripts, only a representative sample needs to be tested to ensure confidence that they all work while balancing time to completion.
Any example files and directories not needed for the skill should be deleted. The initialization script creates example files in `scripts/`, `references/`, and `assets/` to demonstrate structure, but most skills won't need all of them.
#### Update SKILL.md
**Writing Guidelines:** Always use imperative/infinitive form.
##### Frontmatter
Write the YAML frontmatter with `name`, `description`, and `compatibility`:
- `name`: The skill name
- `description`: This is the primary triggering mechanism for your skill, and helps Opencode understand when to use the skill.
- Include both what the Skill does and specific triggers/contexts for when to use it.
- Include all "when to use" information here - Not in the body. The body is only loaded after triggering, so "When to Use This Skill" sections in the body are not helpful to Opencode.
- Example description for a `docx` skill: "Comprehensive document creation, editing, and analysis with support for tracked changes, comments, formatting preservation, and text extraction. Use when Opencode needs to work with professional documents (.docx files) for: (1) Creating new documents, (2) Modifying or editing content, (3) Working with tracked changes, (4) Adding comments, or any other document tasks"
- `compatibility`: Set to "opencode" to indicate this skill is designed for Opencode
Do not include any other fields in YAML frontmatter unless needed for specific Opencode features.
##### Body
Write instructions for using the skill and its bundled resources.
### Step 5: Packaging a Skill (Optional)
For Opencode, skills are typically used directly from `~/.config/opencode/skill/` directory and do not need to be packaged. However, if you want to share a skill with others, you can optionally package it.
The packaging process would create a distributable archive that can be shared:
```bash
scripts/package_skill.py <path/to/skill-folder>
```
Optional output directory specification:
```bash
scripts/package_skill.py <path/to/skill-folder> ./dist
```
### Step 6: Iterate
After testing the skill, users may request improvements. Often this happens right after using the skill, with fresh context of how the skill performed.
**Iteration workflow:**
1. Use the skill on real tasks
2. Notice struggles or inefficiencies
3. Identify how SKILL.md or bundled resources should be updated
4. Implement changes and test again
## Opencode-Specific Considerations
When creating skills for Opencode:
1. **Location**: Skills should be placed in `~/.config/opencode/skill/<skill-name>/`
2. **Compatibility**: Add `compatibility: opencode` to the frontmatter
3. **Tools**: Opencode has different tools available compared to Claude Desktop - refer to Opencode's tool documentation when writing workflows
4. **Testing**: Test skills directly in Opencode by invoking them naturally in conversation or using the skill loader

# Output Patterns
Use these patterns when skills need to produce consistent, high-quality output.
## Template Pattern
Provide templates for output format. Match the level of strictness to your needs.
**For strict requirements (like API responses or data formats):**
```markdown
## Report structure
ALWAYS use this exact template structure:
# [Analysis Title]
## Executive summary
[One-paragraph overview of key findings]
## Key findings
- Finding 1 with supporting data
- Finding 2 with supporting data
- Finding 3 with supporting data
## Recommendations
1. Specific actionable recommendation
2. Specific actionable recommendation
```
**For flexible guidance (when adaptation is useful):**
```markdown
## Report structure
Here is a sensible default format, but use your best judgment:
# [Analysis Title]
## Executive summary
[Overview]
## Key findings
[Adapt sections based on what you discover]
## Recommendations
[Tailor to the specific context]
Adjust sections as needed for the specific analysis type.
```
## Examples Pattern
For skills where output quality depends on seeing examples, provide input/output pairs:
```markdown
## Commit message format
Generate commit messages following these examples:
**Example 1:**
Input: Added user authentication with JWT tokens
Output:
```
feat(auth): implement JWT-based authentication
Add login endpoint and token validation middleware
```
**Example 2:**
Input: Fixed bug where dates displayed incorrectly in reports
Output:
```
fix(reports): correct date formatting in timezone conversion
Use UTC timestamps consistently across report generation
```
Follow this style: type(scope): brief description, then detailed explanation.
```
Examples help Opencode understand the desired style and level of detail more clearly than descriptions alone.

# Workflow Patterns
## Sequential Workflows
For complex tasks, break operations into clear, sequential steps. It is often helpful to give Opencode an overview of the process towards the beginning of SKILL.md:
```markdown
Filling a PDF form involves these steps:
1. Analyze the form (run analyze_form.py)
2. Create field mapping (edit fields.json)
3. Validate mapping (run validate_fields.py)
4. Fill the form (run fill_form.py)
5. Verify output (run verify_output.py)
```
## Conditional Workflows
For tasks with branching logic, guide Opencode through decision points:
```markdown
1. Determine the modification type:
**Creating new content?** → Follow "Creation workflow" below
**Editing existing content?** → Follow "Editing workflow" below
2. Creation workflow: [steps]
3. Editing workflow: [steps]
```

## Overview
[TODO: 1-2 sentences explaining what this skill enables]
## Structuring This Skill
[TODO: Choose the structure that best fits this skill's purpose. Common patterns:
**1. Workflow-Based** (best for sequential processes)
- Works well when there are clear step-by-step procedures
- Example: DOCX skill with "Workflow Decision Tree""Reading""Creating""Editing"
- Structure: ## Overview → ## Workflow Decision Tree → ## Step 1 → ## Step 2...
**2. Task-Based** (best for tool collections)
- Works well when the skill offers different operations/capabilities
- Example: PDF skill with "Quick Start""Merge PDFs""Split PDFs""Extract Text"
- Structure: ## Overview → ## Quick Start → ## Task Category 1 → ## Task Category 2...
**3. Reference/Guidelines** (best for standards or specifications)
- Works well for brand guidelines, coding standards, or requirements
- Example: Brand styling with "Brand Guidelines""Colors""Typography""Features"
- Structure: ## Overview → ## Guidelines → ## Specifications → ## Usage...
**4. Capabilities-Based** (best for integrated systems)
- Works well when the skill provides multiple interrelated features
- Example: Product Management with "Core Capabilities" → numbered capability list
- Structure: ## Overview → ## Core Capabilities → ### 1. Feature → ### 2. Feature...
Patterns can be mixed and matched as needed. Most skills combine patterns (e.g., start with task-based, add workflow for complex operations).
Delete this entire "Structuring This Skill" section when done - it's just guidance.]
## [TODO: Replace with the first main section based on chosen structure]
[TODO: Add content here. See examples in existing skills:
- Code samples for technical skills
- Decision trees for complex workflows
- Concrete examples with realistic user requests
- References to scripts/templates/references as needed]
## Resources
This skill includes example resource directories that demonstrate how to organize different types of bundled resources:
### scripts/
Executable code (Python/Bash/etc.) that can be run directly to perform specific operations.
**Examples from other skills:**
- PDF skill: `fill_fillable_fields.py`, `extract_form_field_info.py` - utilities for PDF manipulation
- DOCX skill: `document.py`, `utilities.py` - Python modules for document processing
**Appropriate for:** Python scripts, shell scripts, or any executable code that performs automation, data processing, or specific operations.
**Note:** Scripts may be executed without loading into context, but can still be read by Opencode for patching or environment adjustments.
### references/
Documentation and reference material intended to be loaded into context to inform Opencode's process and thinking.
**Examples from other skills:**
- Product management: `communication.md`, `context_building.md` - detailed workflow guides
- BigQuery: API reference documentation and query examples
- Finance: Schema documentation, company policies
**Appropriate for:** In-depth documentation, API references, database schemas, comprehensive guides, or any detailed information that Opencode should reference while working.
### assets/
Files not intended to be loaded into context, but rather used within the output Opencode produces.
**Examples from other skills:**
- Brand styling: PowerPoint template files (.pptx), logo files
- Frontend builder: HTML/React boilerplate project directories
- Typography: Font files (.ttf, .woff2)
**Appropriate for:** Templates, boilerplate code, document templates, images, icons, fonts, or any files meant to be copied or used in the final output.
