baoyu-skills

English | 中文

Skills shared by Baoyu for improving daily work efficiency with AI Agents (Claude Code, Codex, etc.).

Prerequisites

Installation

Tip: This repository contains 20+ skills. Install only the ones you actually need — bulk-installing every skill adds unnecessary context overhead for your AI agent on every run.

npx skills add jimliu/baoyu-skills

Codex Project-Level Install

If you only need a subset of skills in one project, you do not need to install the full plugin. Codex scans .agents/skills inside a project, so copy or symlink each needed skill as a full directory:

<project>/.agents/skills/baoyu-cover-image/SKILL.md
<project>/.agents/skills/baoyu-article-illustrator/SKILL.md
<project>/.agents/skills/baoyu-post-to-wechat/SKILL.md

For a WeChat Official Account article workflow, the usual minimal set is:

You do not need to install baoyu-markdown-to-html separately. baoyu-post-to-wechat already includes the Markdown to WeChat-ready HTML conversion flow. Install baoyu-format-markdown only if you need to first turn raw text or drafts into structured Markdown articles with titles, summaries, headings, bold text, lists, and similar formatting.

Place WeChat API credentials according to the scope you want:

Project-level .env files are useful when credentials should apply only to the current project. Do not commit them to Git.

Publish to ClawHub / OpenClaw

This repository now supports publishing each skills/baoyu-* directory as an individual ClawHub skill.

# Preview what would be published
./scripts/sync-clawhub.sh --dry-run

# Publish all changed skills from ./skills
./scripts/sync-clawhub.sh --all

ClawHub installs skills individually, not as one marketplace bundle. After publishing, users can install specific skills such as:

clawhub install baoyu-image-gen
clawhub install baoyu-markdown-to-html

Publishing to ClawHub releases the published skill under MIT-0, per ClawHub's registry rules.

baoyu-diagram

Generate publication-ready SVG diagrams from source material — flowcharts, sequence/protocol diagrams, structural/architecture diagrams, and illustrative intuition diagrams. Analyzes input material to recommend diagram type(s) and splitting strategy, confirms the plan once, then generates all diagrams. Claude writes real SVG code directly following a cohesive design system. Output is self-contained .svg files with embedded styles and auto dark-mode.

# Topic string — skill analyzes and proposes a plan
/baoyu-diagram "how JWT authentication works"
/baoyu-diagram "Kubernetes architecture" --type structural
/baoyu-diagram "OAuth 2.0 flow"          --type sequence

# File path — skill reads, analyzes, and proposes a plan
/baoyu-diagram path/to/article.md

# Language and output path
/baoyu-diagram "微服务架构" --lang zh
/baoyu-diagram "build pipeline" --out docs/build-pipeline.svg

Options:

Option Description
--type <name> flowchart, sequence, structural, illustrative, class, auto (default). Skips type recommendation.
--lang <code> Output language (en, zh, ja, ...)
--out <path> Output file path. Generates exactly one diagram focused on the most important aspect.

Diagram types:

Type Reader need Verbs that trigger it
flowchart Walk me through the steps in order walk through, steps, process, lifecycle, workflow, state machine
sequence Who talks to whom, in what order protocol, handshake, auth flow, OAuth, TCP, request/response
structural Show me what's inside what, how it's organised architecture, components, topology, layout, what's inside
illustrative Give me the intuition — draw the mechanism how does X work, explain X, intuition for, why does X do Y
class What are the types and how are they related class diagram, UML, inheritance, interface, schema

Not an image-generation skill — no LLM image model is called. Claude writes the SVG by hand with hand-computed layout math, so every diagram honors the design system. Embedded <style> block with @media (prefers-color-scheme: dark) means the same file renders correctly in both light and dark mode anywhere it's embedded.

Searching Database…

What is this?A set of 20+ skills by Baoyu that you plug into AI agents like Claude Code and Codex to automate daily work: content generation, diagrams, slide decks, infographics and publishing flows.
Is it one tool or a bundle of separate skills?A bundle: it ships as a single marketplace plugin that registers 20+ individual skills, grouped into Content Skills, AI Generation Skills and Utility Skills. You can also install just the individual skill directories you need.
How do I install them?Add github.com/JimLiu/baoyu-skills as a plugin marketplace in your agent and install the baoyu-skills plugin — or just tell the agent to install skills from that repo. In a Codex project, copy or symlink each needed skill directory into .agents/skills.
What do I need to have installed first?Node.js plus the ability to run npx and bun commands. The skills run inside your existing AI agent, so nothing else is required.
Is there a catch to installing all of them at once?Yes — context overhead. Bulk-installing every skill bloats what your agent carries into every run, so the README recommends installing only the skills you actually need.
What can the skills actually generate?Xiaohongshu image cards (12 styles, 6 layouts), infographics in 21 layouts and 21 visual styles, hand-written SVG diagrams, article covers with 77 palette-and-rendering combinations, and slide decks with presets like blueprint and chalkboard.
Are the diagrams produced by an AI image model?No. baoyu-diagram calls no image model at all — Claude writes real SVG code with hand-computed layout, and the self-contained .svg files render correctly in both light and dark mode.
Can it publish articles to a WeChat Official Account?Yes — baoyu-post-to-wechat covers the full article workflow and already includes Markdown-to-WeChat-HTML conversion. WeChat API credentials go into a .baoyu-skills/.env file at user or project level and must not be committed to Git.
How do I update the skills later?Run /plugin in your agent, switch to the Marketplaces tab, select baoyu-skills and choose Update marketplace — or enable auto-update to always get the latest versions.
