🧠 The data layer for AI systems. Skill Seekers turns documentation sites, GitHub repos, PDFs, videos, notebooks, wikis, and more — 18 source types — into structured knowledge assets, ready to power AI Skills (Claude, Gemini, OpenAI), RAG pipelines (LangChain, LlamaIndex, Pinecone), and AI coding assistants (Cursor, Windsurf, Cline). Prepare once, export to 22 targets.

🚀 Quick Start

# 1. Install
pip install skill-seekers

# 2. Create a skill from any source
skill-seekers create https://docs.djangoproject.com/

# 3. Package it for your AI platform
skill-seekers package output/django --target claude

You now have output/django-claude.zip, ready to use.

# Pick a different AI agent for enhancement (default: claude)
skill-seekers create https://docs.djangoproject.com/ --agent kimi
skill-seekers create https://docs.djangoproject.com/ --agent-cmd "my-custom-agent run"

🛰️ AI-driven project scan

Point scan at a project and an AI agent reads its manifests, README, Dockerfile/CI and sampled source imports — then emits one config per detected framework, plus a <project>-codebase.json for your own code:

skill-seekers scan ./my-react-app --out ./configs/scanned/
# → react.json, vite.json, tailwind.json, jest.json, my-react-app-codebase.json

skill-seekers create ./configs/scanned/react.json

If a detection has no existing preset, the AI generates a fresh config; on exit you can optionally publish it back to the community registry.

All 18 source types

Why it matters

  • 99% faster — days of manual data prep → 15–45 minutes
  • 🎯 Real skill quality — 500+ line SKILL.md files with examples, patterns, and guides
  • 📊 RAG-ready chunks — smart chunking preserves code blocks and context
  • 🔄 Multi-source — combine docs + GitHub + PDFs + videos into one knowledge asset
  • 🌐 One prep, every target — export to 22 targets without re-scraping
  • Battle-tested — 3,900+ tests, 68 workflow presets, production-ready

✨ Key capabilities

<details> <summary><b>Documentation scraping</b> — SPA discovery, llms.txt, smart categorization</summary>

Three-layer discovery for JavaScript SPA sites (sitemap.xmlllms.txt → headless browser rendering), automatic llms.txt detection (10× faster when present), smart topic categorization, and a lenient HTML parser fallback so broken markup still scrapes.

Scraping Guide · llms.txt Support

</details> <details> <summary><b>GitHub & codebase analysis (C3.x)</b> — AST parsing, pattern detection, how-to guides</summary>

Three-stream architecture: code analysis (AST, design patterns, tests), documentation (README, docs/, wiki), and community (issues, PRs, metadata). The C3.x pipeline adds 10 GoF pattern detectors across 9 languages, usage examples extracted from tests, AI-written how-to guides, config extraction, and architecture overviews.

skill-seekers create ./my-project --preset quick          # 1–2 min, surface level
skill-seekers create ./my-project --preset standard       # balanced (default)
skill-seekers create ./my-project --preset comprehensive  # deep, exhaustive

Pattern Detection · How-To Guides · Test Example Extraction

</details> <details> <summary><b>AI enhancement</b> — API or local agents, 68 workflow presets</summary>

Every AI call runs through one transport, in API mode (Anthropic, Google Gemini, OpenAI, Moonshot/Kimi, MiniMax) or LOCAL mode (Claude Code, Kimi Code, Codex, Copilot, OpenCode, custom agents — no API costs). Control depth with --enhance-level 0-3 and pick an agent with --agent.

Enhancement Guide · Enhancement Modes · Multi-Agent Setup

</details> <details> <summary><b>Unified multi-source scraping</b> — combine many sources into one skill</summary>

One config can pull documentation, GitHub, PDFs, videos, and more into a single knowledge asset, with conflict detection and pairwise synthesis across sources.

Unified Scraping

</details> <details> <summary><b>Video extraction</b> — transcripts, frames, on-screen code</summary>

YouTube, Vimeo, and local files. Three-tier transcript fallback (subtitles → YouTube transcript API → local Whisper), plus optional visual extraction that OCRs on-screen code from sampled frames.

Video Guide

</details> <details> <summary><b>Quality, sync & scale</b></summary>

Quality scoring with a gate (skill-seekers quality output/react/ --threshold 7), provisional English readability metrics (informational — they never affect the score), doc-change detection with scheduled re-scrapes and notifications, streaming ingestion for very large doc sets, and incremental updates.

🔌 MCP Integration (40 tools)

Skill Seekers ships an MCP server for Claude Code, Cursor, Windsurf, VS Code + Cline, and IntelliJ IDEA.

# stdio mode (Claude Code, VS Code + Cline)
python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp

# HTTP mode (Cursor, Windsurf, IntelliJ)
python -m skill_seekers.mcp.server_fastmcp --transport http --port 8765

Then just ask your assistant: "Package and upload the React skill."

🆕 New in v3.9.0

  • HTML parser fallback for broken markup (#96) — severely malformed pages no longer scrape as empty; well-formed pages are byte-identical.
  • Transient-failure retries — the doc scraper (#97) and MCP fetch_config (#92) now retry connection blips and 5xx with backoff; 4xx still fails fast.
  • Whisper transcription fallback (#420) — local videos without subtitles finally get a real transcript.
  • MiniMax image OCR + registry-driven multimodal providers (#423) — providers declare their wire protocol and image capability; China-issued keys work against the right endpoint.
  • Token-lean GitHub issue defaults (#169) — GitHub skills no longer bundle full closed-issue history by default.
  • Env-driven CORS across all three servers (#422, #424) — no more wildcard origins with credentials.
