skill_AI_d — Built-in help for Claude skill systems
Turn any system of skills into a self-documenting one.
You build a system of skills. It works well. Then nobody — including future-you — can remember which trigger does what. skill_AI_d solves this by producing a single [SYSTEM]_help.md file that Claude can serve on demand, directly in chat.
No code. No external tools. Just guided skill execution and Markdown output.
For humans — getting started
→ Full documentation: README.md → Source & install: github.com/playtosor/skill_AI_d
Requirements: Claude Desktop with filesystem MCP access.
Typical workflow:
- Run
cdc_help.md→ produces a validated specification (CDC) - Run
help.md→ produces[SYSTEM]_help.md - Ship your system with
[SYSTEM]_help.mdincluded - When skills evolve, run
update_help.md→ delta applied
For agents — quick reference
Load the relevant skill from your skill_AI_d folder:
cdc_help.md— guided procedure to produce the specification before authoringhelp.md— structure convention + authoring of[SYSTEM]_help.mdupdate_help.md— delta detection and surgical update after system changes
Triggers
| Trigger | Skill | What it does |
|---|---|---|
UPDATE HELP? |
update_help.md | Quick scan — signals what has changed, no file written |
UPDATE HELP! |
update_help.md | Full delta analysis, validation, and update |
cdc_help.md is guided — no fixed trigger. Run it by reading the skill and following the steps.
Output
Running skill_AI_d on a system produces one file: [SYSTEM]_help.md.
Reference implementation: m_AI_l_help.md — the help file for the m_AI_l messaging system.
