|
|
|
|
## Key Requirements
|
|
|
|
| Requirement | Details |
|
|
|-------------|---------|
|
|

|
|
|
|
## SKILL.md Frontmatter Template
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
---
|
|
name: baoyu-<name>
|
|
description: <Third-person description. What it does + when to use it.>
|
|
version: <semver matching marketplace.json>
|
|
metadata:
|
|
openclaw:
|
|
homepage: https://github.com/JimLiu/baoyu-skills#baoyu-<name>
|
|
requires: # include only if skill has scripts
|
|
anyBins:
|
|
- bun
|
|
- npx
|
|
---
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Steps
|
|
|
|
1. Create `skills/baoyu-<name>/SKILL.md` with YAML front matter
|
|
2. Add TypeScript in `skills/baoyu-<name>/scripts/` (if applicable)
|
|
3. Add prompt templates in `skills/baoyu-<name>/prompts/` if needed
|
|
4. Register in `marketplace.json` under appropriate category
|
|
5. Add Script Directory section to SKILL.md if skill has scripts
|
|
6. Add openclaw metadata to frontmatter
|
|
|
|
## Category Selection
|
|
|
|
| If your skill... | Use category |
|
|
|------------------|--------------|
|
|
| Generates visual content (images, slides, comics) | `content-skills` |
|
|
| Publishes to platforms (X, WeChat, Weibo) | `content-skills` |
|
|
| Provides AI generation backend | `ai-generation-skills` |
|
|
| Converts or processes content | `utility-skills` |
|
|
|
|
New category: add plugin object to `marketplace.json` with `name`, `description`, `skills[]`.
|
|
|
|
## Writing Descriptions
|
|
|
|
**MUST write in third person**:
|
|
|
|
```yaml
|
|
# Good
|
|
description: Generates Xiaohongshu infographic series from content. Use when user asks for "小红书图片", "XHS images".
|
|
|
|
# Bad
|
|
description: I can help you create Xiaohongshu images
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Script Directory Template
|
|
|
|
Every SKILL.md with scripts MUST include:
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
## Script Directory
|
|
|
|
**Important**: All scripts are located in the `scripts/` subdirectory of this skill.
|
|
|
|
**Agent Execution Instructions**:
|
|
1. Determine this SKILL.md file's directory path as `{baseDir}`
|
|
2. Script path = `{baseDir}/scripts/<script-name>.ts`
|
|
3. Resolve `${BUN_X}` runtime: if `bun` installed → `bun`; if `npx` available → `npx -y bun`; else suggest installing bun
|
|
4. Replace all `{baseDir}` and `${BUN_X}` in this document with actual values
|
|
|
|
**Script Reference**:
|
|
| Script | Purpose |
|
|
|--------|---------|
|
|
| `scripts/main.ts` | Main entry point |
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Progressive Disclosure
|
|
|
|
For skills with extensive content:
|
|
|
|
```
|
|
skills/baoyu-example/
|
|
├── SKILL.md # Main instructions (<500 lines)
|
|
├── references/
|
|
│ ├── styles.md # Loaded as needed
|
|
│ └── examples.md # Loaded as needed
|
|
└── scripts/
|
|
└── main.ts
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
Link from SKILL.md (one level deep only):
|
|
```markdown
|
|
**Available styles**: See [references/styles.md](references/styles.md)
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
## Extension Support (EXTEND.md)
|
|
|
|
Every SKILL.md MUST include EXTEND.md loading. Add as Step 1.1 (workflow skills) or "Preferences" section (utility skills):
|
|
|
|
```markdown
|
|
**1.1 Load Preferences (EXTEND.md)**
|
|
|
|
Check EXTEND.md existence (priority order):
|
|
|
|
\`\`\`bash
|
|
test -f .baoyu-skills/<skill-name>/EXTEND.md && echo "project"
|
|
test -f "${XDG_CONFIG_HOME:-$HOME/.config}/baoyu-skills/<skill-name>/EXTEND.md" && echo "xdg"
|
|
test -f "$HOME/.baoyu-skills/<skill-name>/EXTEND.md" && echo "user"
|
|
\`\`\`
|
|
|
|
| Path | Location |
|
|
|------|----------|
|
|
| `.baoyu-skills/<skill-name>/EXTEND.md` | Project directory |
|
|
| `$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/baoyu-skills/<skill-name>/EXTEND.md` | XDG config (~/.config) |
|
|
| `$HOME/.baoyu-skills/<skill-name>/EXTEND.md` | User home (legacy) |
|
|
|
|
| Result | Action |
|
|
|--------|--------|
|
|
| Found | Read, parse, display summary |
|
|
| Not found | Ask user with AskUserQuestion |
|
|
```
|
|
|
|
End of SKILL.md should include:
|
|
```markdown
|
|
## Extension Support
|
|
Custom configurations via EXTEND.md. See **Step 1.1** for paths and supported options.
|
|
```
