Skill Curator

Overview

This skill automates the process of discovering, extracting, and cataloging agent skills into a central README.md file. It ensures consistency in descriptions, categories, and installation commands.

Workflow

1. Research & Discovery

Use the most appropriate tool to explore the target repository. If you are equipped with the "Public Repo Explorer" skill, perform a local shallow clone. Otherwise, use tools like the GitHub MCP server to browse the remote files.

You MUST explicitly locate the actual SKILL.md files to identify valid skills. Use comprehensive search tools (e.g., find_by_name or grep_search if local, or MCP search) across the entire codebase.
Why? Do not guess the directory structure based on folder names, because skills can be deeply nested (e.g., plugins/expo-app-design/skills/layout/SKILL.md). A folder is only a valid skill if it contains a SKILL.md file directly inside it.

2. Metadata Extraction

For each identified SKILL.md file, extract:

Name: The display name of the skill (from SKILL.md frontmatter).
Description: A concise summary of what the skill does (from SKILL.md frontmatter).
Source Link: The direct GitHub URL to the SKILL.md file itself (must end in /SKILL.md).

3. Categorization

Group skills into logical categories. If a clear category isn't obvious, use these defaults or suggest new ones:

React Native: Mobile development, optimization, and upgrades.
Web & React: Frontend best practices, design guidelines, and composition patterns.
Workflows & Tools: CI/CD, GitHub automation, deployment, and general utility skills.

4. Catalog Update

Update the workspace README.md using the established table format. The Source Link MUST point directly to the SKILL.md file (e.g., end in /SKILL.md). Do not include an "Install Command" column; instead, ensure the README.md has a general Installation section at the bottom.

Skill Name	Source	Description
[Skill Name](Source Link to SKILL.md)	[Source Name](Source Repo URL)	Description

Examples

Example 1: Input: "Add the skills from https://github.com/example/agent-skills to my catalog." Action:

Discover SKILL.md files recursively in the repository.
Find skills like image-optimizer at packages/ui/skills/image-optimizer/SKILL.md.
Extract name and description from the frontmatter.
Update README.md with the new entries, ensuring the Source Link points directly to packages/ui/skills/image-optimizer/SKILL.md.
