Agent Skill

skill-studio

Design your next automation through a structured JTBD interview.

skill-studio

Interview-driven automation design tool. This skill should be used when the user wants to design a new skill, agent, automation, shortcut, or any other automatable workflow. Runs a coverage-driven JTBD interview (text or voice), then exports a one-page markdown spec plus an SVG design map.

What it does

Conducts a structured JTBD interview to help you design a new skill, agent, or automation — then exports a one-page spec and an SVG design map. Sits between “should I automate this?” and “how do I code this?” in your workflow.

Interview modes

  • Text (default) — interactive Q&A in the terminal, no API keys needed
  • Voice — live voice interview via Daily/Groq/Deepgram (requires API keys)

Depth levels

  • Sprint (0.60 coverage, ~5–7 questions) — quick scoping
  • Standard (0.80 coverage, ~15–20 questions) — default, thorough design
  • Deep (0.92 coverage, ~25–35 questions) — comprehensive spec for complex automations

Key features

  • Coverage tracking — the interview adapts based on which design fields still need data
  • Session seeding — can bootstrap from a prior Claude Code transcript or another session
  • Multiple question styles — scenario-first, socratic, metaphor-first, or direct form
  • Outputdesign.md (one-page spec) + design.svg (visual map)

When to use

When you have a recurring pain or workflow you want to turn into an automation, and need to scope it properly before building. Also useful for designing skills, bots, agents, or any structured workflow.
