/skill setup

Interactive wizard for setting up and managing local skills (formerly local-skills-setup).

Behavior:

Step 1: Directory Check and Setup

First, check if skill directories exist and create them if needed:

bash

# Check and create user-level skills directory
USER_SKILLS_DIR="$HOME/.claude/skills/omc-learned"
if [ -d "$USER_SKILLS_DIR" ]; then
  echo "User skills directory exists: $USER_SKILLS_DIR"
else
  mkdir -p "$USER_SKILLS_DIR"
  echo "Created user skills directory: $USER_SKILLS_DIR"
fi

# Check and create project-level skills directory
PROJECT_SKILLS_DIR=".omc/skills"
if [ -d "$PROJECT_SKILLS_DIR" ]; then
  echo "Project skills directory exists: $PROJECT_SKILLS_DIR"
else
  mkdir -p "$PROJECT_SKILLS_DIR"
  echo "Created project skills directory: $PROJECT_SKILLS_DIR"
fi

Step 2: Skill Scan and Inventory

Scan both directories and show a comprehensive inventory:

bash

# Scan user-level skills
echo "=== USER-LEVEL SKILLS (~/.claude/skills/omc-learned/) ==="
if [ -d "$HOME/.claude/skills/omc-learned" ]; then
  USER_COUNT=$(find "$HOME/.claude/skills/omc-learned" -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null | wc -l)
  echo "Total skills: $USER_COUNT"

  if [ $USER_COUNT -gt 0 ]; then
    echo ""
    echo "Skills found:"
    find "$HOME/.claude/skills/omc-learned" -name "*.md" -type f -exec sh -c '
      FILE="$1"
      NAME=$(grep -m1 "^name:" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null | sed "s/name: //")
      DESC=$(grep -m1 "^description:" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null | sed "s/description: //")
      MODIFIED=$(stat -c "%y" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null || stat -f "%Sm" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null)
      echo "  - $NAME"
      [ -n "$DESC" ] && echo "    Description: $DESC"
      echo "    Modified: $MODIFIED"
      echo ""
    ' sh {} \;
  fi
else
  echo "Directory not found"
fi

echo ""
echo "=== PROJECT-LEVEL SKILLS (.omc/skills/) ==="
if [ -d ".omc/skills" ]; then
  PROJECT_COUNT=$(find ".omc/skills" -name "*.md" 2>/dev/null | wc -l)
  echo "Total skills: $PROJECT_COUNT"

  if [ $PROJECT_COUNT -gt 0 ]; then
    echo ""
    echo "Skills found:"
    find ".omc/skills" -name "*.md" -type f -exec sh -c '
      FILE="$1"
      NAME=$(grep -m1 "^name:" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null | sed "s/name: //")
      DESC=$(grep -m1 "^description:" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null | sed "s/description: //")
      MODIFIED=$(stat -c "%y" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null || stat -f "%Sm" "$FILE" 2>/dev/null)
      echo "  - $NAME"
      [ -n "$DESC" ] && echo "    Description: $DESC"
      echo "    Modified: $MODIFIED"
      echo ""
    ' sh {} \;
  fi
else
  echo "Directory not found"
fi

# Summary
TOTAL=$((USER_COUNT + PROJECT_COUNT))
echo "=== SUMMARY ==="
echo "Total skills across all directories: $TOTAL"

Step 3: Quick Actions Menu

After scanning, use the AskUserQuestion tool to offer these options:

Question: "What would you like to do with your local skills?"

Options:

Add new skill - Start the skill creation wizard (invoke
```
/skill add
```
)
List all skills with details - Show comprehensive skill inventory (invoke
```
/skill list
```
)
Scan conversation for patterns - Analyze current conversation for skill-worthy patterns
Import skill - Import a skill from URL or paste content
Done - Exit the wizard

Option 3: Scan Conversation for Patterns

Analyze the current conversation context to identify potential skill-worthy patterns. Look for:

Recent debugging sessions with non-obvious solutions
Tricky bugs that required investigation
Codebase-specific workarounds discovered
Error patterns that took time to resolve

Report findings and ask if user wants to extract any as skills (invoke

/learner

if yes).

Option 4: Import Skill

Ask user to provide either:

URL: Download skill from a URL (e.g., GitHub gist)
Paste content: Paste skill markdown content directly

Then ask for scope:

User-level (~/.claude/skills/omc-learned/) - Available across all projects
Project-level (.omc/skills/) - Only for this project

Validate the skill format and save to the chosen location.

/skill scan

Quick command to scan both skill directories (subset of

/skill setup

Behavior: Run the scan from Step 2 of

/skill setup

without the interactive wizard.

Skill Templates

When creating skills via

/skill add

/skill setup

, offer quick templates for common skill types:

Error Solution Template

markdown

---
id: error-[unique-id]
name: [Error Name]
description: Solution for [specific error in specific context]

## Example
\`\`\`typescript
// Before (broken)
[problematic code]

// After (fixed)
[corrected code]
\`\`\`

# Sync between scopes
/skill sync

# Run setup wizard
/skill setup

# Quick scan
/skill scan

Usage Modes

Direct Command Mode

When invoked with an argument, skip the interactive wizard:

```
/oh-my-claudecode:skill list
```
- Show detailed skill inventory
```
/oh-my-claudecode:skill add
```
- Start skill creation (invoke learner)
```

Interactive Mode

When invoked without arguments, run the full guided wizard.

Benefits of Local Skills

Automatic Application: Claude detects triggers and applies skills automatically - no need to remember or search for solutions.

Version Control: Project-level skills (.omc/skills/) are committed with your code, so the whole team benefits.

Evolving Knowledge: Skills improve over time as you discover better approaches and refine triggers.

Reduced Token Usage: Instead of re-solving the same problems, Claude applies known patterns efficiently.

Codebase Memory: Preserves institutional knowledge that would otherwise be lost in conversation history.

Skill Quality Guidelines

Good skills are:

Non-Googleable - Can't easily find via search
- BAD: "How to read files in TypeScript"
- GOOD: "This codebase uses custom path resolution requiring fileURLToPath"
Context-Specific - References actual files/errors from THIS codebase
- BAD: "Use try/catch for error handling"
- GOOD: "The aiohttp proxy in server.py:42 crashes on ClientDisconnectedError"
Actionable with Precision - Tells exactly WHAT to do and WHERE
- BAD: "Handle edge cases"
- GOOD: "When seeing 'Cannot find module' in dist/, check tsconfig.json moduleResolution"
Hard-Won - Required significant debugging effort
- BAD: Generic programming patterns
- GOOD: "Race condition in worker.ts - Promise.all at line 89 needs await"

Tips for Users

Run
```
/oh-my-claudecode:skill list
```
periodically to review your skill library
After solving a tricky bug, immediately run learner to capture it
Use project-level skills for codebase-specific knowledge
Use user-level skills for general patterns that apply everywhere
Review and refine triggers over time to improve matching accuracy

Implementation Notes

YAML Parsing: Use frontmatter extraction for metadata
File Operations: Use Read/Write tools, never Edit for new files
User Confirmation: Always confirm destructive operations
Clear Feedback: Use checkmarks (✓), crosses (✗), arrows (→) for clarity
Scope Resolution: Always check both user and project scopes
Validation: Enforce naming conventions (lowercase, hyphens only)
