Mutual Conversion between Skill and Prompt

Usage Scenarios

Users need to convert Skill to a Prompt that can be directly copied to the chat box
Users need to convert Prompt to Skill in SKILL.md format
Users mention mutual conversion between Skill and Prompt, or format conversion

Step 1: Obtain Input and Confirm Conversion Direction

Obtain the content to be converted from the user's message, paste, or attachment, and determine the conversion direction:

A. Skill → Prompt: Input is SKILL.md content, output is a Prompt usable in the chat box
B. Prompt → Skill: Input is Prompt content (including ``` code blocks), output is in SKILL.md format

Step 2: Execute Conversion

When converting Skill → Prompt: Integrate

name

and

description

into

# Role

and

# Task

; Convert "Usage Scenarios" to applicable scenarios; Convert Step 1/2... into

# Workflow

# Constraints

; Add

# Output Format

and

# Input

placeholders; Wrap the output with ```.

When converting Prompt → Skill: Extract

name

(lowercase English with hyphens) and

description

from

# Role

and

# Task

; Extract "Usage Scenarios" from

# Task

# Constraints

; Break down

# Workflow

and

# Constraints

into Step 1, Step 2...; Retain

# Output Format

in "Notes"; Output the complete SKILL.md, which must comply with the standard Skill format.

Step 3: Output Results

Part 1 [Conversion Explanation]: Briefly explain the mapping relationship (e.g., Step 1 is mapped to the first step of Workflow)
Part 2 [Conversion Result]: Complete converted content (can be directly pasted for use)

Notes

Zero Information Loss: Do not delete core logic, steps, or constraints
Format Adaptation: Skill emphasizes "when to trigger" and "how the Agent executes"; Prompt emphasizes "what the user inputs" and "what output format to use"
Naming Convention:
```
name
```
must be in lowercase English with hyphens (e.g.,
```
wechat-article-writer
```
); reference file names follow the same rule (e.g.,
```
outline-review-science.md
```
)
Description Quality: Must include "when to use", "what it's used for", and key words
Skill Body Structure: Title → Usage Scenarios → Step 1/2... → Notes/Examples; For multi-input tasks, supplement "input method when triggered"

Standard Skill Format: YAML frontmatter must start and end with

---

, using

name:

and

(strictly prohibit

## name:

), example:

---
name: skill-name
description: Trigger scenarios and function description
