Skill Creator — Workspace Skills for Open WebUI

An Open WebUI Tool that interviews you, drafts a Workspace Skill (SKILL.md, Claude-style), and persists it via POST /api/v1/skills/create — private by default.

Pair with Model Creator to bind skills onto Workspace Models.

License: MIT · Author: IANUSTEC · Requires Open WebUI >= 0.10.0

Features

• Saves for real — does not only paste SKILL.md in chat; calls the Skills API with the user’s session token.
• Claude-style workflow: interview → draft → validate → create.
• Pushy descriptions: WHAT + WHEN (trigger phrases) for reliable skill selection.
• Private by default — empty access_grants (owner-only).
• SKILL.md or JSON input with YAML frontmatter.
• Single-file — paste into Workspace → Tools.

Requirements

• Open WebUI >= 0.10.0 (Workspace Skills API)
• Permission to create workspace skills (or admin)
• Python deps (auto-installed from frontmatter): httpx, pydantic, PyYAML

Installation

Option A — Open WebUI community

1. Open the tool page on the Open WebUI community site.
2. Click Get / Import.

Option B — manual

1. Workspace → Tools → +
2. Paste skill_creator.py
3. Save and enable the tool on a model/chat

Usage

The model should:

1. Interview: what the skill enables, when it should trigger, expected output.
2. Draft SKILL.md with name + description (and body instructions).
3. Optionally call validate_skill.
4. Call create_skill(content) to persist.

Example SKILL.md
