Your Skill Name

One-line elevator pitch. What problem does this skill solve?

A short paragraph of context: who the skill is for, when it fires, and what the user should expect.

When to use this skill

  • Trigger phrase 1.
  • Trigger phrase 2.
  • Explicit invocation: /crystools-skills:your-skill-name.

When NOT to use it

  • Clearly state what's out of scope. This prevents overlap with other skills.

Execution

1. Resolve inputs

Explain how the skill picks up its inputs (conversation, arguments, files).

2. Do the work

Step-by-step instructions. Keep them imperative and concrete.

3. Present results

How the skill should present output to the user. Format, verbosity, confirmation prompts.

  • Never run destructive operations.
  • Add any skill-specific guardrails here.
