description: Creates and updates skills and rules for the UFO Tech catalog (ufo-tech.space/ai) — the ai/skills/<slug>/ or ai/rules/<slug>/ folder (in the site repository or in a provider's public repository) with manifest.yaml, README.uk.md / README.en.md, agent variants (claude/, codex/, universal/) and shared/ files. Use when the user wants to publish, package, add or port a skill or rule to ufo-tech.space, to make a skill available for another agent, or edits files under ai/ in the ufo-tech.space site repository or in a repository meant for the catalog.

# Authoring for the UFO Tech catalog

You are **Claude Code**. This skill is installed in `~/.claude/skills/ufo-skill-author/` (or `.claude/skills/ufo-skill-author/` in a project).

1. Read `reference.md` next to this file — it is the full specification: layout, manifest.yaml, README naming,
   SKILL.md format, shared files, rules, providers' repositories, checks.
2. Ask what the item is for (task, triggers, target agents) if the user has not said; decide skill vs rule.
3. Work in the ufo-tech.space site repository (folder `ai/`) or in the user's own public repository for the catalog.
   Reuse existing tags from `/ai/catalog.json`.
4. Put everything common to all agents into `shared/`; variant folders hold only what differs. Never duplicate files.
5. Write `README.uk.md` and `README.en.md` (both), titles and summaries in both languages in manifest.yaml.
6. Run the checks from `reference.md` (`app:ai:catalog`, the item page, a test install) and report what you created,
   what you could not verify and what the user still has to do (commit, pull request).
