About
write-a-skill is a plugin bundle for AI coding tools published by Alireza Rezvani. Marketplaces we read that list it: 1 (Community GitHub marketplaces). We first saw it on 2026-10-14 and have recorded no change since. As of our marketplace pass on 2026-10-14.
Skill-author skill: create new agent skills with proper structure, progressive disclosure, and bundled resources. Derived from Matt Pocock's MIT-licensed write-a-skill with: (1) 3 stdlib Python validation tools (description validator, structure validator, review-checklist runner — all enforcing Matt's 6-item checklist), (2) 4 references citing 7-8 authoritative sources each (progressive disclosure principles, description design patterns, quality gates, companion tooling), (3) cs-skill-author persona agent + /cs:write-a-skill slash command. Matt's voice and 3-phase workflow (Gather → Draft → Review) preserved verbatim per MIT.

Is this your plugin?
Add it to your projects and prove you maintain it with a file in its repository, a file on your domain or a DNS record. You get alerts when a marketplace lists it, drops it, changes its verified mark or what it asks for, and its remote endpoint goes on monitoring as a web service.
Data comes from public marketplace files in GitHub repositories of their authors. Figures come from our own regular passes over the marketplaces, last read on . We publish no contact details for plugin publishers.
