Skill Forge — Ultimate Claude Code Skill Creator

Blog: Learn how to build Claude Code skills

Design, scaffold, build, review, evolve, and publish production-grade Claude Code skills following the Agent Skills open standard.

Features

• Plan — Analyze use cases, select complexity tier (1-4), design architecture with sub-skill decomposition
• Build — Scaffold complete skill file trees with SKILL.md, sub-skills, scripts, references, and agents
• Review — Audit any skill with a 0-100 health score across 6 quality categories
• Evolve — Fix triggering issues, improve instructions, refine architecture based on feedback
• Publish — Package as .skill files, generate install scripts, prepare for GitHub distribution
• Convert — Port skills to OpenAI Codex, Google Gemini CLI, Google Antigravity, and Cursor
• Eval — Run evaluation pipelines with assertions, grading, and multi-agent execution
• Benchmark — Measure performance with variance analysis, multiple trials, and threshold gating

Usage

Commands

Command	Description
/skill-forge	Interactive skill creation wizard
/skill-forge plan <domain>	Architecture and design planning
/skill-forge build <name>	Scaffold and build a skill
/skill-forge review <path>	Audit an existing skill (0-100 score)
/skill-forge evolve <path>	Improve a skill from feedback
/skill-forge publish <path>	Package for distribution
/skill-forge eval <path>	Run eval pipeline to test skill quality
/skill-forge benchmark <path>	Benchmark skill with variance analysis
/skill-forge convert <path>	Convert to Codex, Gemini, Antigravity, or Cursor

Examples

Create a simple skill:

/skill-forge build my-tool

Design a complex skill ecosystem:

/skill-forge plan "DevOps toolkit for Docker and Kubernetes management"

Review an existing skill:

/skill-forge review ~/.claude/skills/my-skill

Convert a skill for other platforms:

/skill-forge convert ~/.claude/skills/my-skill

Quick scaffold with the CLI script:

python skill-forge/scripts/init_skill.py devops-toolkit --tier 3 --sub docker,k8s,monitor

Skill Complexity Tiers

Tier	Name	Structure	Best For
1	Minimal	Single SKILL.md	Simple workflows, document generation
2	Workflow	SKILL.md + scripts	Tasks needing deterministic validation
3	Multi-Skill	Orchestrator + sub-skills	Complex domains with multiple workflows
4	Ecosystem	Full system with agents	Enterprise-grade parallel analysis
