Will it break my existing Claude Code commands?

No, the skill preserves your original files. It generates a detailed migration report that shows you exactly how to update your original files to use the new modular skill.

Can I use it for batch processing?

Yes, Skill Extractor supports batch analysis, allowing you to scan entire directories of commands to find consolidation opportunities across your whole ecosystem.

How does this help with token optimization?

By moving large, static reference materials and boilerplate code out of the main prompt and into specialized skills, you reduce the token count sent to the AI in every turn.

What exactly does the Skill Extractor do?

It analyzes your existing Claude Code commands and agents to find parts that could be used elsewhere—like scripts or templates—and moves them into their own organized skill folder.

What types of files can it extract?

It can identify and extract shell/Python scripts, reference documentation, Markdown templates, and various assets like JSON or YAML configuration files.

Developer Tools

Analyzes and extracts reusable components from Claude Code commands and agents into properly structured, modular skills.

About

Skill Extractor is a specialized refactoring utility designed to modularize complex Claude Code ecosystems. It scans existing commands and agents to identify reusable scripts, reference materials, and assets, then automatically migrates them into standalone skill directories following standard conventions. By providing detailed migration reports and dependency detection, it helps developers reduce token bloat, improve code maintainability, and create a scalable library of reusable AI capabilities.

Key Features

Generates standardized SKILL.md files and directory structures for new skills
Dependency and conflict detection to ensure system integrity during extraction
Produces detailed migration reports with step-by-step update instructions
Intelligent pattern recognition for code blocks and large documentation sections
8 GitHub stars
Automated identification of reusable scripts, templates, and reference documentation

Use Cases

Optimizing token usage by extracting large reference datasets into on-demand skills
Modularizing monolithic Claude Code agents into smaller, more manageable components
Standardizing project architecture by moving embedded templates into external assets
