Skill Lister FAQs

Question 1

What does the Skill Lister skill do?

Accepted Answer

The Skill Lister automatically scans your project's .claude/skills/ directory to discover and inventory available capabilities. It extracts metadata from SKILL.md files, including descriptions and executable script paths, to provide a clear map of all automation tools available to the user or AI agent.

Question 2

How does this skill improve AI agent performance?

Accepted Answer

It provides a 'bootstrap context' for AI agents. Instead of the agent having to manually explore the file system to see what it can do, Skill Lister provides a structured list of capabilities, allowing the agent to immediately identify and use the right tool for the job.

Question 3

When should I use the Skill Lister in my workflow?

Accepted Answer

You should use it at the start of a new work session, when onboarding to a new repository, or whenever you need to audit your project's AgenticDev setup. It is particularly useful for verifying that skills are correctly installed and that the AI agent has the necessary context to perform tasks.

Question 4

Does Skill Lister support programmatic processing?

Accepted Answer

Yes. While it provides human-readable text by default, it includes a JSON output flag (-j). This allows other scripts and AI systems to parse the project's skill capabilities programmatically for deeper integration and automation.

Question 5

What are the prerequisites for using Skill Lister?

Accepted Answer

The only requirements are a standard .claude/skills/ directory structure and SKILL.md files with YAML frontmatter. It is a lightweight, pure bash implementation that requires no additional third-party dependencies or specialized environments.
