Skillify

Use this skill when the user asks to codify a workflow into a reusable skill.

This skill covers both upstream GStack's scrape-to-browser-skill flow and GBrain's broader meta-skill pattern.

Workflow

  1. Identify the proven workflow:
    • trigger language
    • required tools
    • ordered steps
    • inputs and outputs
    • guardrails
    • one coherent capability and trigger family; if the candidate contains separately invocable intents, split it and ask which capability to codify first
  2. Decide whether it belongs in:
    • skills/
    • a plugin or app skill
    • documentation only
  3. Create a concise SKILL.md with frontmatter and operational steps.
  4. Update registries or routing when this repo owns the skill.
  5. Add a validation path or smoke test.

Guardrails

  • Do not skillify a workflow that has not worked at least once.
  • Do not scaffold a skill when the workflow lacks a clear trigger, reusable judgment, or a coherent single-capability boundary.
  • Keep skills short and executable.
  • Do not encode secrets, private URLs, or brittle session state.
