Skill Forge (Lattice Skill Generator)

A meta-skill that designs and scaffolds new Lattice atoms, molecules, and refiners with every framework convention in place.

Dev & CodingIntermediate★ 179⑂ 13AI score 8/10Last updated: Jul 6, 2026

What it does

  • Asks what the new skill should do, classifies it as an atom / molecule / refiner, and requires explicit tier agreement before writing.
  • Writes files to the exact conventional paths: skills/atoms/{name}/SKILL.md + references/defaults.md, skills/molecules/{name}/SKILL.md, or skills/refiners/{name}/SKILL.md + assets/template.md.
  • For molecules and refiners, checks knowledge-base/ for an existing requirements doc and settles design questions (composed atoms, generative vs. planning flow, .lattice/ output subfolder, session resume) first.
  • Enforces Lattice's required sections: config resolution, self-validation checklist, anti-pattern scan (5+ items), ambiguity signals, and three-part confirmation gates for interactive molecules.
  • Ends with a completeness check (paths, folder-name/frontmatter match, no TBD/TODO). It deliberately does not validate, sync docs, or deploy.

Who it's for

  • Developers actively contributing skills to the Lattice framework repo.
  • Anyone who keeps forgetting section order or gate wording when hand-writing SKILL.md files.
  • Maintainers who want authoring conventions applied consistently across a team.

Examples

  1. "Add an atom that enforces our error-handling principle" → generates SKILL.md plus a §-numbered defaults.md with real, opinionated content.
  2. "Build a release-readiness molecule" → agrees on which atoms it composes, whether it's generative or planning, and where it writes under .lattice/, then writes the workflow.
  3. "Create a refiner for testing standards" → picks the consuming atom, defines the paths.* config key, and produces assets/template.md with interview-guidance comments.

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/techygarg/lattice/HEAD/dev-skills/skill-forge/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 dev-skills/skill-forge folder from the GitHub repo techygarg/lattice into my ~/.claude/skills/skill-forge/.
When it's done, tell me in one line what this skill can do.

Install with a command instead

git clone https://github.com/techygarg/lattice.git && mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills && cp -r lattice/dev-skills/skill-forge ~/.claude/skills/

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

  1. Open a terminal.
  2. Clone the repo: git clone https://github.com/techygarg/lattice.git
  3. Make sure the skills folder exists: mkdir -p ~/.claude/skills
  4. Copy the skill: cp -r lattice/dev-skills/skill-forge ~/.claude/skills/
  5. Because it reads PROJECT.md, skills/atoms/, and knowledge-base/, run Claude Code from inside a Lattice project directory.
  6. Trigger it with phrases like "create a new skill", "add an atom", or "skill forge".
