Documentation

README

Excerpt

Skill Creator

A skill for creating new bb skills and iteratively improving them.

At a high level the process looks like this:

Decide what the skill should do and roughly how it should do it
Write a draft of the skill into ~/.bb/skills/<name>/SKILL.md
Try it on a few realistic prompts by spawning bb threads, with and without the skill
Evaluate the results with the user, both qualitatively and with a few objective checks
Rewrite the skill based on what you learned
Repeat until you are both satisfied
Optionally tune the description so the skill triggers reliably

This is the opening of the README. Read the full README on GitHub.
