added a /learn command to its . The command can read a folder of source material and turn it into a .md file. That source material can include API docs, an unfamiliar codebase, or many .

This makes basic skill creation much easier than writing everything by hand. Still, a skill made from public docs alone is likely to be generic. A valuable skill needs to be shaped for a specific workflow, tested against unusual cases, and optimized so it works cleanly in real use.

For better results with , /learn should be treated as a fast first draft, not the finished skill.

  • /learn can turn a folder of source material into a SKILL.md file.
  • Basic skill creation is now much easier than hand-writing every instruction.
  • A skill built only from public API docs may be too generic.
  • Strong skills should be tailored, tested on , and optimized for a real workflow.
