Skill Genie 🧞

A meta-skill that analyzes user requests and recommends the most relevant skills from the available skill library.

Purpose

Help users discover and leverage the right skills for their tasks by:

1. Analyzing the user's intent and requirements
2. Matching against available skills in the workspace
3. Recommending optimal skill combinations
4. Explaining why each skill is relevant

Trigger Phrases

• "help me pick a skill"
• "recommend a skill"
• "which skill for..."
• "find the right skill"
• "skill suggestions"
• At the start of complex tasks where skill selection matters

Workflow

Step 1: Analyze Request

Parse the user's query to identify:

• Task type: creation, analysis, automation, documentation, etc.
• Domain: code, content, data, design, DevOps, etc.
• Complexity: single skill vs. multi-skill workflow
• Output format: file, artifact, report, script, etc.

Step 2: Scan Available Skills

Check skill directories for matches:

# Local project skills
.claude/skills/

# User-level skills (Claude Desktop)
/mnt/skills/user/

# Public skills
/mnt/skills/public/

# Example skills
/mnt/skills/examples/
