What its author says it does
Copied from the file, not written here
Turn automation runs into one or more specific Codex skill candidates. Use when an automation should produce reusable skills, stronger prompts, trend workflows, GitHub-ready skill artifacts, or generated-skill naming rules. Triggers: automation to skill, make this into a skill, generated skill pack, many skills from GitHub repos, trend-backed skill, skill naming regex. Skip when the task only needs a one-off fix or a broad brainstorm.

Automation Skill Forge
Goal: turn recurring automation work and GitHub/source research into sharp, non-overlapping Codex skill candidates or a clear decision not to create any.
Naming Regex
Generated skills from this automation must use:
^auto-skill-(research|build|review|audit|ops|safety|trend)-[a-z0-9]+(?:-[a-z0-9]+){1,4}$
Format: auto-skill-<mode>-<domain>-<artifact>.
Examples:
auto-skill-trend-agentic-disease-intakeauto-skill-safety-mcp-secret-guardauto-skill-build-github-repo-radar
Workflow
- Read automation memory and the current workspace index first.
- Read
references/maintenance-automation-scope.mdfor the full agency model. - Choose a primary aim: research, build, review, audit, ops, safety, or trend.
- Gather compact evidence with
rg, manifests, README/docs, and exact source files. - For multiple local source clones, use
$auto-skill-build-source-pattern-synthesisto cluster workflow patterns before writing skill files. - Create as many useful non-overlapping skills as the evidence justifies.
- Move broad catalogs or long examples into references.
- Validate each new or changed skill with
$skill-quality-gate.

Command Defaults
- Search:
rg,rg --files, exact symbols, package manifests. - Repo scan:
scripts/repo_snapshot.sh <repo>andscripts/token_budget.sh <repo>when available. - Validation:
scripts/skill_audit.sh plugins/codex-supercharge/skillsandquick_validate.py. - GitHub packaging: prepare files, docs, validation output, and commit-ready notes only; do not publish unless asked.
Trend Guardrail
Use trend signals to choose domains, not to invent claims. Current trend-backed skill ideas must cite source/date and include a safety or usefulness gate.
Read references/automation-skill-patterns.md and
references/maintenance-automation-scope.md before creating generated skills
or broad skill batches.
Validation
- Every generated skill name matches the automation regex unless promoted to a stable first-class name.
- Each candidate has a trigger, skip condition, workflow, references, and validation.
- Broad catalogs or examples are moved into references before installation.
