Skill justinramos101/agent-skill-kit/docs/templates/example-minimal

Template contract for this repository: the minimum artifacts every skill must ship (SKILL.md, skill.json, evals/*) so static checks catch a skill templated from it that bypasses gates. Hidden from `npx skills add . --list` by `metadata.internal: true`. Do not delete.From its SKILL.md

Install
npx -y skills add justinramos101/agent-skill-kit --skill example-minimal

Example minimal skill

This folder exists as the template contract for this repository: it carries the minimum required artifacts (SKILL.md, skill.json, and evals/*) so contributors can't accidentally template a new skill that bypasses gates.

New skills templated from this folder follow the house style: flat (no routing CSVs), AFK-default (no mode menus or wait-for-user steps — run to completion and state assumptions), SKILL.md under ~500 words with must-not-miss invariants inlined, and at most a few distilled reference files. Static checks use the shared flat shape in scripts/check-skill-static.py.

It is marked metadata.internal: true, so it is hidden from npx skills add . --list unless INSTALL_INTERNAL_SKILLS=1 is set.

When to use

Never in production installs. Use only when validating template/gate behavior, or as the source you copy when starting a new skill (see step 1 below).

Steps

  1. Copy this directory to skills/my-real-skill/ and edit SKILL.md — rewrite the frontmatter description for the routing decision: intent triggers plus capability-based anti-triggers ("Do NOT use for X" — describe the excluded work, don't name a sibling skill that may not be installed alongside yours; see docs/skill-authoring-principles.md) — or run npx skills init my-real-skill and move the result under skills/.
  2. Do not delete docs/templates/example-minimal/ — per AGENTS.md Rule 3, it is the template contract and must continue to exist so future skills can be templated from it. Living under docs/ keeps it out of the install lanes.

What ships with it: 5 files

6.2 KB alongside SKILL.md, 1 of them executable
