Automated summary
Scaffolds a new skill folder in the affiliate-skills repo by copying the template and license, after asking the user for the name, stage, and description.
Strengths
- Collects the required inputs through guided questions (kebab-case name, stage, description)
- Enforces the repo's prescribed layout: stage folder, references/ subdirectory, and LICENSE.txt
- Reminds the author of the pre-PR checklist (at least 2 examples and a test run with 3 prompts)
Limitations
- Tightly coupled to the affiliate-skills repo layout and its five fixed stages
- Does not generate skill content beyond filling the template, and does not validate the examples
- Assumes template/SKILL.md and LICENSE exist at the repo root
Use it when adding a new skill to the affiliate-skills repo and you want a compliant starting structure.
Avoid it outside that specific repo, or when editing and reviewing an existing skill.
Security analysis
SafeThe skill only instructs the agent to create directories, copy files, and edit a template within the repository. It does not involve network requests, destructive commands, secret handling, or code execution beyond basic file operations. No malicious or risky actions are present.

How this analysis is madeExamples
Scaffold a new skill called write-product-comparison in the content stage — it drafts side-by-side comparison posts for affiliate products.Create a new skill in the landing stage named build-quiz-funnel that generates quiz-based lead capture funnels.Scaffold a new skill for the affiliate-skills repo.
Ask the user for:
- Skill name (kebab-case, verb-noun format)
- Which stage? (research, content, blog, landing, distribution)
- Brief description of what it does
Then:
- Create
skills/{stage}/[skill-name]/SKILL.mdfromtemplate/SKILL.md - Create
skills/{stage}/[skill-name]/references/directory - Copy
LICENSEtoskills/{stage}/[skill-name]/LICENSE.txt - Fill in the template with the user's input
- Remind the user to write at least 2 examples and test with 3 prompts before PR
From the file to a first result
The download contains exactly the content displayed on this page. This copy may differ from the latest version in the source repository.
View the source and supporting filesThis download contains SKILL.md only. Any scripts, references, templates and dependencies are not included. Get the required files from the source, preserving their directory structure, before continuing.
1. Download the file
Download SKILL.mdFrom the root of a test project, save the file as .skill-downloads/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3/SKILL.md, or use the command below. This folder is for inspecting the skill before installation.
Command for macOS/Linux or WSL: requires a POSIX shell and curl. On Windows without WSL, use the download button and create the folder manually.
mkdir -p '.skill-downloads/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3' && curl --fail --show-error --location 'https://skills-guides.com/api/skills/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3/download' --output '.skill-downloads/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3/SKILL.md.part' && mv '.skill-downloads/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3/SKILL.md.part' '.skill-downloads/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3/SKILL.md'2. Check prerequisites
Read SKILL.md before using it. If it references scripts or external services, inspect them and prepare the required access in your test environment.
No recognized prerequisites section in this file. This does not mean it is self-contained: libraries, tools and access requirements may be mentioned elsewhere in the content or source repository.
The platforms on this page are catalog indications. The paths below follow tool documentation; they do not prove this skill has been run in those tools. No minimum tool version is confirmed for this listing.
3. Load the skill
This file does not provide a usable name/description header for this native procedure. It remains available to download and inspect; use the manual method below.
Manual method or another tool: attach SKILL.md to a conversation, or open it in an agent that can read files. Include any required supporting resources. No universal folder is recognized by every tool.
4. Try a first task
Use a short, synthetic input: an API endpoint, a small document or an interface brief. In a new conversation, attach the file or give the agent its path, then adapt this request:
Read .skill-downloads/scaffold-a-new-affiliate-skill-mu6gupk3/SKILL.md and apply its instructions to this example: [describe a test input]. Identify any missing files, dependencies or access. Produce the result requested by the skill without inventing data or running unreviewed scripts.Expected result: output matching the skill instructions, or a precise list of missing prerequisites. A read confirmation alone does not validate a first use. If an external resource is unavailable, that path remains untested.
React Hook Form Best Practices
Development
Master React Hook Form: avoid anti-patterns, manage subscriptions, and handle reset, dirty state, and controlled inputs correctly.
Emotion to Mantine Migration
Development
Migrate Emotion styled-components to Mantine components with style props and CSS modules. Use when converting .styled.tsx files or removing @emotion imports.
Scope Creep Detector
Development
Analyzes git diffs against a stated intent to detect scope creep, unrelated files, broad PRs, and oversized changes, then suggests keep, split, or justify actions.
