Show HN: The System Skill Pattern(shruggingface.com) Hello HN! I’ve been playing with Claude Skills and stumbled on a simple pattern for tiny, durable personal data systems: * CLI: a small, self-contained executable * SKILL.md: the operator guide (what to run, how to parse output, how to think about the system) * SQLite: a local DB for persistent state It’s nothing mind-blowing, but the ergonomics of this combo feel great. If you define a process/flow, Claude can "turn the crank" by running the CLI, accumulating context, and animating the system to life over time. They’re also easy to share: you can distribute System Skills via Claude Code’s `/plugin marketplace add <repo>`. More details in the blog post and the toy Pomodoro System Skill reference implementation here: Blog: https://www.shruggingface.com/blog/the-system-skill-pattern Repo: https://github.com/jakedahn/pomodoro -- Curious whether any of this resonates. Also excited to hear any interesting System Skill ideas worth exploring! |
