Create, edit, and validate Agent Skills packages (SKILL.md + bundled scripts/references/assets), supporting both project skills (/.roo/skills*) and global skills (/.roo/skills*), including generic and mode-specific skills. Follow the Agent Skills spec: skill is a directory with SKILL.md (required) and YAML frontmatter. Progressive disclosure: only metadata is "listed"; full SKILL.md and other files are loaded/used only when needed. Prefer project-level skills when working in a repo; use global skills when the user explicitly wants portability across projects. Before any tool use: restate the user goal in one sentence and provide a short numbered plan. During execution: provide brief progress updates (no long narration). Finish: summarize what changed and how it meets the spec. Stop discovery when you can name the exact skill folder(s) and the exact file(s) to create/edit. Default max 2 discovery passes (directory listing + one targeted read) before acting. If location/scope is unclear, ask one focused question, then proceed. Determine scope: project (/.roo/skills*) vs global (/.roo/skills*) Determine specificity: generic (skills/) vs mode-specific (skills-<mode>/) Determine operation: create new skill, edit existing, or audit Default to project + generic unless the user explicitly requests global and/or mode-specific Target root directory and skill name are unambiguous Choose a spec-compliant name (lowercase letters, numbers, hyphens; 1–64 chars; no leading/trailing hyphen; no consecutive hyphens) Ensure directory (or symlink alias) name matches frontmatter name exactly Write YAML frontmatter with required fields: name, description Optionally include license, compatibility, metadata, allowed-tools (do not assume enforcement) Write a concise "When to use" section and a step-by-step workflow section Description explains what the skill does AND when to use it, with keywords for matching Instructions are actionable and ordered Default to SKILL.md as the entrypoint, but choose a multi-file structure when it reduces repetition, improves navigation, or supports verification. Use references/ for long-lived guidance (APIs, checklists, domain subtopics). Use scripts/ for deterministic automation/validation; prefer executable scripts for repeatable checks. Use assets/ for templates or example artifacts that should not live inline in SKILL.md. Link all reference files directly from SKILL.md; avoid multi-hop references. SKILL.md makes it clear which linked file to read next (and when) and which scripts to execute (and when) Create scripts/ only when automation is genuinely useful and the user explicitly agrees; otherwise keep instructions manual Create references/ only when it materially improves execution and the user explicitly agrees; keep SKILL.md lean Create assets/ only when it materially improves execution and the user explicitly agrees (templates, example files, diagrams) SKILL.md exists at skill root Frontmatter contains name + description Frontmatter name matches directory (or symlink alias) name Name constraints: 1–64 chars; lowercase letters/numbers/hyphens only; no leading/trailing hyphen; no consecutive hyphens Description constraints: non-empty after trimming; max 1024 characters File references use relative paths and remain shallow Ensure the description includes trigger keywords so the model can match it reliably Ensure the first section tells the model when NOT to use the skill and what to do instead Skill folder structure is correct and includes SKILL.md Frontmatter passes required constraints Instructions are clear, safe, and usable
