What Skill Forge does

Skill Forge creates new Lattice skill files for atoms, molecules, or refiners and follows the framework’s conventions. Use it when adding a new Lattice skill or when you need guidance on the required file structure and section order.

Skill Forge is cataloged under AI Engineering on DirSkills. Skill Forge comes from a repository tagged agent, agent-framework, agent-skills, agentic and agentic-ai.

Documentation

README

Lattice Skill Forge

Core responsibility: Create the right files with the right structure for a new Lattice skill.

Input: A description of what the skill should do and when it should trigger.

Output: One or more skill files written to the correct path:

  • Atom → source/atoms/{name}/SKILL.md + source/atoms/{name}/references/defaults.md
  • Molecule → source/molecules/{name}/SKILL.md
  • Refiner → source/refiners/{name}/SKILL.md + source/refiners/{name}/assets/template.md

How to verify this skill did its job:

  • All required files exist at the correct paths
  • Folder name matches name: frontmatter exactly
  • All tier-required sections are present in correct order
  • No placeholder content — all sections contain real, specific content

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

Architecture

Architecture enforces architectural rules when generating or reviewing code, and checks proposed designs against loaded architecture standards. It validates layer responsibilities, dependency direction, and structural constraints for clean, hexagonal, modular monolith, or custom architectures.

Architecture Compass

Architecture Compass scans a repository, interviews the user about unclear parts, and drafts a shareable architectural assessment. Use it to understand the current structure, drift, and recommended direction for one codebase, module, or folder.
