🚀 Quick Start

1. Explore the Registry

from lib.skill_registry import SkillRegistry

registry = SkillRegistry()

# Get statistics
stats = registry.get_stats()
print(f"Total skills: {stats['total_skills']}")

# Find skills by category
tier1 = registry.find_by_category("tier1-foundation")
print(f"Foundation skills: {tier1}")

# Find skills by tag
db_skills = registry.find_by_tag("database")
print(f"Database skills: {db_skills}")

2. Compose a Workflow

from lib.skill_composer import SkillComposer

composer = SkillComposer(registry)

# Define workflow
skills = [
    "database-schema-generator",
    "api-endpoint-builder",
    "testing-framework"
]

# Compose and validate
workflow = composer.compose_workflow(skills)
print(f"Valid: {workflow['valid']}")
print(f"Order: {workflow['dependencies']}")

3. Use a Meta-Skill

python3 meta-skills/full-stack-builder/scripts/build_app.py \
  "SaaS app with auth and payments" \
  payments,email

🏗️ Architecture

The system uses a 5-layer architecture:

Layer 5: Meta-Skills (Orchestration)
         ↓
Layer 4: Discovery System (Registry & Composer)
         ↓
Layer 3: Individual Skills (71 skills)
         ↓
Layer 2: Shared Utilities (Common code)
         ↓
Layer 1: Foundation (Standards & patterns)

Key Components

1. Skill Registry (skills.json) - Central manifest with metadata
2. Shared Utilities (lib/) - Common code for all skills
3. Discovery System - Find and suggest complementary skills
4. Dependency Graph - Automatic ordering and resolution
5. Meta-Skills - High-level orchestrators
