autoskill Detect operator repetition and turn it into a skill. Trigger when the operator gives an instruction, correction, or prompt pattern for roughly the third time in a conversation (or says they keep repeating themselves), and the pattern is general enough to reuse. Portable across projects.

When you notice the operator repeating the same kind of instruction, correction, or prompt pattern (about three occurrences, exact wording may vary), do the following:

  1. Finish the current task first; never interrupt work in progress.
  2. Then propose, in one short paragraph: the repeated pattern you observed, a skill name suggestion, the trigger phrasing, and what the skill would do. Ask whether to create it.
  3. On approval, write the skill:
    • a conversation shortcut or expansion: add it to the shortcuts skill table instead of creating a new skill.
    • project-specific behavior: create it in the project's own skills directory (e.g. skills/<name>/SKILL.md in the repository).
    • portable behavior: create skills/<name>/SKILL.md in the operator's skills repository. Follow the local naming conventions and keep the skill a thin, single-purpose instruction; route to an authoritative doc when one exists instead of duplicating it.
  4. Do not propose a skill for one-off work, secrets, or anything whose repetition is already covered by an existing skill; when an existing skill almost fits, propose extending it instead.
