Convert any PDF or EPUB into structured SKILL.md files your AI agents can read and execute. Automated skill extraction with evidence grounding and source provenance.
Books and papers encode task-performance knowledge as prose. Your AI agents need structured skill definitions with steps, conditions, and evaluation criteria. Skillcrawl automates the extraction.
Each extracted skill is a standalone SKILL.md file with YAML frontmatter and imperative markdown. AI agents load and execute them directly. Humans can audit and edit them.

Pitfall: Do not use "I understand" 3. Wait silently after the label 4. Follow with a calibrated question ## Evaluation Criteria Success: other party elaborates Failure: you interrupt the silence
Two products, one pipeline. Skillcrawl extracts AI agent skills from source material. skill.broker is the marketplace where those skill definitions get listed and sold to other agent builders.
Use the CLI or the REST API. Submit a PDF or EPUB, receive structured skill definitions. Pay per extraction job with credits.
Submit a document to skillcrawl.sh via the CLI or REST API. The extraction pipeline parses, mines candidates, synthesizes evidence-grounded skills, deduplicates, and scores confidence. You get back a set of SKILL.md files your agents can execute immediately.
Credit-based pricing scales with document length and extraction granularity. Every job includes an extraction report with per-skill confidence scores and provenance metadata.
