From thinking-frameworks-skills
Transforms PDFs, markdown, papers, and guides into actionable Claude Code skills using Adler's six-step systematic reading workflow. For skill creation from documents.
npx claudepluginhub lyndonkl/claude --plugin thinking-frameworks-skillsThis skill uses the workspace's default tool permissions.
- [Workflow](#workflow)
Generates design tokens/docs from CSS/Tailwind/styled-components codebases, audits visual consistency across 10 dimensions, detects AI slop in UI.
Records polished WebM UI demo videos of web apps using Playwright with cursor overlay, natural pacing, and three-phase scripting. Activates for demo, walkthrough, screen recording, or tutorial requests.
Delivers idiomatic Kotlin patterns for null safety, immutability, sealed classes, coroutines, Flows, extensions, DSL builders, and Gradle DSL. Use when writing, reviewing, refactoring, or designing Kotlin code.
This skill applies Mortimer Adler's systematic reading methodology ("How to Read a Book") through a six-step progressive approach: inspectional reading, structural analysis, component extraction, synthesis, skill construction, and validation. The process is collaborative -- at decision points, options and trade-offs are presented for the user to choose.

- [ ] Step 0: Initialize session workspace

- [ ] Step 2: Structural Analysis
- [ ] Step 3: Component Extraction
- [ ] Step 4: Synthesis and Application
- [ ] Step 5: Skill Construction

Step 0: Initialize Session Workspace
Create working directory and global context file. See resources/inspectional-reading.md#session-initialization for setup commands.
Step 1: Inspectional Reading
Skim document systematically, classify type, assess skill-worthiness. Writes to step-1-output.md. See resources/inspectional-reading.md#why-systematic-skimming for skim approach, resources/inspectional-reading.md#why-document-type-matters for classification, resources/inspectional-reading.md#why-skill-worthiness-check for assessment criteria.
Step 2: Structural Analysis
Reads global-context.md + step-1-output.md. Classify content, state unity, enumerate parts, define problems. Writes to step-2-output.md. See resources/structural-analysis.md#why-classify-content, resources/structural-analysis.md#why-state-unity, resources/structural-analysis.md#why-enumerate-parts, resources/structural-analysis.md#why-define-problems.
Step 3: Component Extraction
Reads global-context.md + step-2-output.md. Choose reading strategy, extract terms/propositions/arguments/solutions section-by-section. Writes to step-3-output.md. See resources/component-extraction.md#why-reading-strategy for strategy selection, resources/component-extraction.md#section-based-extraction for programmatic approach, resources/component-extraction.md#why-extract-terms through resources/component-extraction.md#why-extract-solutions for what to extract.
Step 4: Synthesis and Application
Reads global-context.md + step-3-output.md. Evaluate completeness, identify applications, transform to actionable steps, define triggers. Writes to step-4-output.md. See resources/synthesis-application.md#why-evaluate-completeness, resources/synthesis-application.md#why-identify-applications, resources/synthesis-application.md#why-transform-to-actions, resources/synthesis-application.md#why-define-triggers.
Step 5: Skill Construction
Reads global-context.md + step-4-output.md. Determine complexity, plan resources, create SKILL.md and resource files, create rubric. Writes to step-5-output.md. See resources/skill-construction.md#why-complexity-level, resources/skill-construction.md#why-plan-resources, resources/skill-construction.md#why-skill-md-structure, resources/skill-construction.md#why-resource-structure, resources/skill-construction.md#why-evaluation-rubric.
Step 6: Validation and Refinement
Reads global-context.md + step-5-output.md + actual skill files. Score using rubric, present analysis, refine based on user decision. Writes to step-6-output.md. See resources/evaluation-rubric.json for criteria.
