GitHub Publishes Practical Guide to Building Agent Skills
Start here
GitHub published a practical guide to building agent skills: versioned directories centered on a SKILL.md file that describe when and how to perform a repeatable task. The guide uses two examples, Proof Agent for adversarial verification of AI-generated code and Data Forge for a multi-skill data pipeline, to show how skills share a project manifest, reuse one execution path, and place human approval at each phase. It also describes a packaging script that generates client-specific files for Claude Code, Cursor and GitHub Copilot from a single skills source.
