Overview

Skill creation enables adding new capabilities to OpenCode through custom skill definitions. This skill should be invoked when creating new skills, documenting workflows, or adding domain-specific capabilities.

Core Principles

• Clear Trigger: Define when the skill should be invoked
• Structured Input: Specify required input data
• Step-by-Step: Document the process clearly
• Expected Output: Define success criteria

Preparation Checklist

• [ ] Define skill name and description
• [ ] Identify trigger conditions
• [ ] Gather existing examples
• [ ] Plan skill structure

Step-by-Step Process

1. Define: Create skill name and description
2. Trigger: Identify when skill applies
3. Input: Specify required inputs
4. Process: Document step-by-step procedures
5. Output: Define expected output format
6. Test: Verify skill works correctly

Do's and Don'ts

• ✅ Do use clear, descriptive names
• ✅ Do include examples
• ✅ Do test the skill thoroughly
• ❌ Don't make triggers too broad
• ❌ Don't skip documentation
• ❌ Don't overcomplicate the skill

Anti-Patterns

• Vague Triggers: Unclear invocation conditions
• No Examples: Missing usage examples
• Over-Complexity: Skills that do too much
• No Testing: Not verifying functionality
