book-to-skill (33k stars) turns technical books into agent skills, cutting token use 24–51x
udmrzn · x · 2026-10-04
book-to-skill (33.6k GitHub stars) converts any technical book, document folder, or source collection into a unified agent skill usable inside GitHub Copilot CLI, Amp, Claude Code, Hermes Agent, OpenCode, and OpenClaw.
- Ingests PDFs, EPUBs, and document folders, structuring design principles and decision rules
- On-demand retrieval: only the needed chapters load per question — measured at 24–51x fewer tokens than dumping the whole book into context
- Works across major coding agents
The pitch: turn books you've "read and forgotten" into referenceable knowledge while you code.
