Skill pnp/ai-skills/skills/skills-index-snippets

Create and maintain AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md snippet indexes that route tasks to the correct ai-skills skills (including compressed Vercel-style indexes).From its SKILL.md

Maintaining Skill Index Snippets (AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md)

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when:

Adding, removing, or renaming any skills in this repository
Updating .claude-plugin/plugin.json
Creating copy/paste snippets for downstream repositories (OpenCode, Claude Code, etc.)
You want a compact, always-on index that improves skill utilization

Goal

Make skills easy for coding assistants to use by removing the decision point.

Instead of hoping an assistant will "remember" to invoke a skill, provide a small router snippet inside AGENTS.md / CLAUDE.md that:

Provides a task->skill routing index
Keeps skill usage consistent across projects

Source of Truth

Registry: .claude-plugin/plugin.json
- Skills are listed as directories (each contains SKILL.md)
Skill IDs: the name: field in each SKILL.md frontmatter

When writing snippets for downstream repos, always reference skills by their IDs (frontmatter name), not by local filesystem paths.

Minimal Snippet Template (Readable)

Use this in target repos to route common tasks:

# Agent Guidance: ai-skills

Workflow: skim repo patterns -> use spfx-best-practices by name -> implement smallest-change -> note conflicts.

Routing (invoke by name)
- SPFx: spfx-best-practices

Compressed Snippet Template (Vercel-style)

Use this when you want maximum density (small context footprint):

[ai-skills]|flow:{skim repo patterns -> use spfx-best-practices by name -> implement smallest-change -> note conflicts}
|route:
|spfx:{spfx-best-practices}

Regenerating the README block

If the README contains the markers below, the generator can update it automatically:

<!-- BEGIN AI-SKILLS COMPRESSED INDEX -->
...compressed snippet...
<!-- END AI-SKILLS COMPRESSED INDEX -->

Run:

./scripts/generate-skill-index-snippets.sh --update-readme

How to Update Snippets After Skill Changes

Update .claude-plugin/plugin.json to include/remove skills.
Ensure each skill has correct frontmatter name: (used by OpenCode and others).
Run ./scripts/validate-marketplace.sh.
Update your snippet routing lists:
- Add new skills to the right category
- Remove deleted skills
- Keep names exactly matching frontmatter IDs
If you maintain a downstream AGENTS.md/CLAUDE.md snippet, regenerate it and re-copy into dependent repos.

Recommended Categories

These are snippet categories (not necessarily repository folder structure):

SPFx

Keep the snippet small; it should be a router, not documentation.
