Skill Seeker Development Roadmap

Vision

Transform Skill Seeker into the easiest way to create Claude AI skills from any knowledge source - documentation websites, PDFs, codebases, GitHub repos, Office docs, and more - with both CLI and MCP interfaces.

🎯 New Approach: Flexible, Incremental Development

Philosophy: Small tasks → Pick one → Complete → Move on

Instead of rigid milestones, we now use a flexible task-based approach:

• 100+ small, independent tasks across 10 categories
• Pick any task, any order
• Start small, ship often
• No deadlines, just continuous progress

See: Flexible Roadmap for the complete task list!
