What is it?

Skill Conductor is a skill for AI coding agents such as Claude Code that manages the full lifecycle of other skills: choosing an architecture, writing SKILL.md, testing, evaluating and packaging. It asks the author to pick an architecture pattern (sequential, iterative, context-aware, domain intelligence, or multi-MCP) before writing any instructions.

Evaluation uses BinEval, which scores a skill with atomic yes/no questions across five dimensions: discovery, clarity, structure, robustness and completeness. A skill passes when every critical question is answered yes, each answer carries supporting evidence, and the judge is kept unaware of the pass threshold. Improvement runs as a gated loop in which edits are limited per iteration and accepted only if held-out tests do not regress.

The project is distributed through the skills.sh installer and as a Claude Code plugin, and is written in Python with scripts for validation, eval runs, description optimization and packaging as a .skill file.

Key features

  • 01Architecture selection step before writing SKILL.md
  • 02BinEval scoring with evidence-backed yes/no questions and critical-question gating
  • 03Gated self-update loop with train/held-out evaluation split
  • 04Pressure testing and baseline comparison for discipline-style skills
  • 05Description optimization for accurate triggering
  • 06Packaging validated skills as .skill files

Use cases

  • Authoring new Claude Code skills and checking their structure before sharing them
  • Reviewing third-party skills for quality before installing them
  • Tuning an existing skill's description so it triggers on the right requests
  • Preparing a skill for distribution through a plugin marketplace

Quick start

  1. 1

    Install via skills.sh into ~/.claude/skills

    npx skills add smixs/skill-conductor
  2. 2

    Or add the Claude Code plugin marketplace

    /plugin marketplace add smixs/skill-conductor
  3. 3

    Install the Claude Code plugin from the marketplace

    /plugin install skill-conductor@smixs

Things to know
