Skill Builder (Skill Seekers)

Auto-detects the source type — docs site, GitHub repo, PDF, video, codebase — and turns it into a packaged AI skill.

What it does

This is an orchestration skill for the Skill Seekers MCP server and its ~40 tools. It infers the source type straight from your input:

  • https://... → documentation scraping (scrape_docs)
  • owner/repo or github.com/... → repository analysis (scrape_github)
  • *.pdf → PDF extraction (scrape_pdf)
  • YouTube/Vimeo links → transcript conversion (scrape_video)
  • Local directory → codebase analysis (scrape_codebase)
  • Jupyter, OpenAPI, AsciiDoc, PPTX, RSS, manpages → scrape_generic

It then follows a standard pipeline: generate config → estimate scope → scrape → optional AI enhancement → package for the target platform → export to a vector DB (Weaviate, Chroma, FAISS, Qdrant). When the MCP server isn't connected, it falls back to the skill-seekers create <source> CLI instead of stopping.

Who it's for

  • Teams turning internal or open-source docs into LLM-ready knowledge
  • Skill authors and DevRel folks who ship many skills
  • Data/AI engineers loading knowledge bases into vector stores for RAG
  • Anyone who needs to resync existing skills when upstream docs change

Examples

  1. "Build a skill from https://docs.stripe.com" → config generation, page estimation, scraping, and Claude packaging in one pass.
  2. "Analyze vercel/next.js and extract how-to guides" → scrape_github + extract_test_examples + build_how_to_guides.
  3. "Turn this 40-minute YouTube tutorial into a skill and load it into Chroma" → transcript scraping, skill build, then export_to_chroma.

Install in Claude Code

Let Claude do it — paste this into Claude Code

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

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r Skill_Seekers/distribution/claude-plugin/skills/skill-builder ~/.claude/skills/ && pip install "skill-seekers[mcp]"

⚠ 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/yusufkaraaslan/Skill_Seekers.git
  3. Copy the skill folder: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r Skill_Seekers/distribution/claude-plugin/skills/skill-builder ~/.claude/skills/
  4. Install the Python package: pip install "skill-seekers[mcp]" (Python 3.10+ recommended).
  5. Register the MCP server once: claude mcp add skill-seekers -- python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp
  6. Restart Claude Code and confirm tools like scrape_docs and package_skill appear in your tool list.
  7. Try it: "Build a skill from this docs site." If MCP isn't available, the same pipeline runs via skill-seekers create <source>.
