Java Skills Inventory Checklist Generator

Generates INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md by treating the Plinth repo's skills.xml as the single source of truth for every Java system prompt skill.

Dev & CodingIntermediate43690AI score 7/10Last updated: Sep 4, 2026

What it does

  • Reads plinth-skills-generator/src/main/resources/skills.xml and extracts every declared skill id.
  • Produces INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md using the exact section structure from references/003-skills-inventory.md.
  • Validates coverage afterwards: no missing skills, no invented rows, all template sections preserved.
  • Applies strict id rules — use the skillId attribute when present, otherwise the single reference-list/reference value.
  • Stops and asks first when the goal is ambiguous or required files/tools are missing.

Who it's for

  • Maintainers and contributors of the Plinth Toolkit repo (jabrena/plinth)
  • Teams publishing a catalog of Java system prompts / cursor rules as documentation
  • Anyone keeping generated docs in sync with an XML inventory file

Examples

  1. "Create the Java system prompts checklist" → writes INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md to the project root
  2. "Use @003-skills-inventory to generate the inventory under docs/" → writes to the requested path
  3. "I added new entries to skills.xml — regenerate the inventory and verify nothing is missing" → regenerate + coverage validation

Try it now, no install

Paste this into Claude to use the skill without installing anything.

Read the instructions in this file and follow them to help me:
https://raw.githubusercontent.com/jabrena/plinth/HEAD/skills/003-skills-inventory/SKILL.md

What I want: (describe your task here)

If Claude can't open the link, open it yourself and paste the contents instead.

If it works for you, download the ZIP below and install it. Then it runs on its own — no pasting each time.

Install in the Claude app (no terminal)
  1. Download the ZIP with the button below.
  2. In Claude, open Settings → Capabilities and turn on 'Code execution and file creation'. (one time)
  3. Go to Customize → Skills → + → 'Upload a skill' and upload the ZIP.
Download ZIP
Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

Install the skill I found on Claude Skill Mart.
Copy the skills/003-skills-inventory folder from the GitHub repo jabrena/plinth into my ~/.claude/skills/003-skills-inventory/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/jabrena/plinth.git && cp -r plinth/skills/003-skills-inventory ~/.claude/skills/

This is a third-party skill. Check the source repository before installing.

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repository: git clone https://github.com/jabrena/plinth.git
  3. Copy the skill into your Claude skills folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r plinth/skills/003-skills-inventory ~/.claude/skills/
  4. Confirm the template file ~/.claude/skills/003-skills-inventory/references/003-skills-inventory.md came along.
  5. This skill only makes sense in a project containing plinth-skills-generator/src/main/resources/skills.xml, so start Claude Code from that project directory.
  6. Trigger it with @003-skills-inventory or by asking "Generate INVENTORY-SKILLS-JAVA.md".
