Adding New Skills

When you build a new skill:

1. Create the skill folder and SKILL.md inside it (e.g., skills/my-skill/SKILL.md)
2. Add an entry to this index with triggers, purpose, and dependencies
3. Add the triggers to the Quick Trigger Reference table at the top

The index is a living document. Update it every time you add, change, or remove a skill.
