Skill Seekers
An automated conversion system that transforms documentation websites into production-ready Claude AI skills through intelligent scraping, content organization, and AI-powered enhancement.
This tool is essential for developers who want to create custom Claude skills from their favorite frameworks, game engines, or internal documentation without manual content organization.
Core Purpose
Skill Seekers automates the entire process of creating Claude skills from documentation:
- Scrape documentation websites automatically and intelligently
- Extract PDF documents including scanned PDFs via OCR
- Organize content into categorized reference files
- Enhance with AI to extract examples and key concepts
- Package everything into uploadable .zipfiles for Claude
Three Access Methods
1. Claude Code Integration
Use natural language commands directly in Claude Code:
- "Create a skill from the React documentation"
- "Scrape the Django docs and make a skill"
- "Build a skill for Godot Engine"
MCP server integration provides 9 tools accessible with conversational commands.
2. CLI with Presets
Quick skill generation using pre-built configurations:
python cli/doc_scraper.py --preset react
python cli/doc_scraper.py --preset godot
python cli/doc_scraper.py --preset django
Eight ready-to-use presets included for popular frameworks.
3. Custom Configuration
Full control for specialized documentation:
python cli/doc_scraper.py --config my_docs.json
Define custom scraping rules, content filters, and organization patterns.

Configuration Options
Custom Scraping Rules
Define URL patterns, content selectors, and filtering rules:
{
  "base_url": "https://docs.example.com",
  "url_patterns": ["/docs/**"],
  "exclude_patterns": ["/blog/**"],
  "content_selector": "article.content",
  "max_pages": 1000
}
Content Organization
Specify categorization and structure:
{
  "categories": {
    "api": "API Reference",
    "guides": "User Guides",
    "examples": "Code Examples"
  },
  "auto_detect_language": true
}
Handling Large Documentation
For 10,000+ Pages:
Use router/hub skill architecture:
- Create main hub skill
- Split documentation by major sections
- Generate sub-skills for each section
- Hub routes queries to appropriate sub-skill
- Maintains context across skills
This approach keeps skills under token limits while handling massive documentation.
Best Practices
