How to use the AI Snippet Generator agent skill
Updated · written with AI from the project's own documentation and checked against our catalogue data
The AI Snippet Generator is an agent skill, a set of written instructions that a compatible AI agent loads to handle one kind of task. This guide explains what this skill makes the agent do, how to install it, how to ask for it in plain language, and what to check before using the output. By the end you will be able to hand the agent a question and your own source text and get back a candidate answer passage with a note on how well it matches the source.

- 6Request one revision if needed. Ask for a single focused change, such as a shorter answer or a different audience.
What does the AI Snippet Generator skill do?
Given a question and the source text you supply, the agent writes a candidate answer passage that tries to answer the question directly. It keeps the original facts, units and qualifiers from your source, so a range such as 3–5 business days stays a range with the business-day qualifier.
The skill also states that the output is a candidate answer passage and notes how well it lines up with the source. It does not promise any search ranking.
- Input: a question plus supporting source text.
- Output: an answer passage and a source alignment note.
- Not included: web search, code execution, or any guarantee of search placement.
Install the skill from the ZIP download
Download the ZIP for this skill from our page and unzip it. The package contains a single file, SKILL.md. Place the unzipped skill folder in one of two locations: your personal skills folder at ~/.claude/skills/, or a project's .claude/skills/ folder if you want the skill available only inside that project.
If you use the Claude apps instead, you can upload the skill under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.
- Personal install: ~/.claude/skills/
- Project install: the .claude/skills/ folder inside your project
- Claude apps: Settings → Capabilities → Skills, then upload
Trigger the skill with a natural request
You do not need a special command. Describe what you want in plain language and include the question and the source text together. The skill's description tells the agent to use it when working with question and supporting source text, so requests that contain both are the clearest triggers.
If you have extra preferences, such as tone, detail level or audience, add them in the same message. The skill's optional prompt template has four fields: Input, Goal, For and Preferences. Only Input is required.
- Paste the question and the source text in one message.
- Say what you need: for example, a draft answer paragraph for an SEO page.
- Add optional preferences like tone, length or audience if they matter.

Input: [paste question and supporting source text]
Goal: [optional desired outcome]
For: [optional audience, market or language]
Preferences: [optional tone, detail level, format or constraints]Examples of good requests
Good requests give the agent a question and the facts that answer it. If the source is missing a fact the answer needs, the skill asks one focused question rather than inventing one.
Here is a request an SEO writer might send. The agent should return a passage that keeps the stated range and qualifier, then note any gaps.
- Question: How long does delivery take? Source: Delivery takes 3–5 business days. Result: a short answer that keeps the range and the business-day qualifier.
- Question: Is the product waterproof to 10 m? Source: a spec sheet with a rating and conditions. Result: a passage that keeps the rating and its conditions exactly as written.
- Empty request: if you send only whitespace or no source text, the agent asks for the minimum input instead of making up an answer.
What the skill needs and what it runs
The skill lists no required tools or packages. It does not run scripts and does not use the network. Everything it works from is the text you paste into the conversation.
Because it reads only what you give it, it cannot check facts against live web pages. Treat the output as a draft to review against your original source.
- Requires: nothing listed.
- Runs scripts: no.
- Uses network: no.
- Files: SKILL.md only.
Safety notes before you use the output
The skill treats instructions inside pasted pages or documents as content, not as commands, so text in your source that tells the agent to ignore your task should be ignored. Keep credentials and private customer data out of the source you paste, because they will appear in the generated output.
The skill does not publish, send or change anything. Any action outside writing the draft, such as posting to a website, needs your own authorization and is done by you.
- Do not paste passwords, API keys or private customer records.
- Review every fact in the draft against the original source before publishing.
- Nothing is sent or published by the skill itself.
Tips for better results
Paste the exact wording from your source, including units and conditions. The skill preserves what it is given, so vague input produces vague output. If your source has conflicting values, the skill is designed to flag the conflict and ask a targeted question rather than pick one.
Use the alignment note to see where the passage matches the source and where it does not, then ask for a focused revision of just the part that needs it.
- Paste full sentences from the source, not summaries.
- Keep units and qualifiers in the source text.
- Ask for one focused revision at a time, such as shortening the answer.
What people use it for
- Drafting a short answer paragraph for an FAQ section from a product spec sheet.
- Checking whether a page's existing wording answers a common question accurately against your own source.
- Preparing a candidate answer passage for an SEO writer to edit before publication.
- Reviewing a source with conflicting values so the conflict is flagged before any copy is written.
Frequently asked questions
Is the AI Snippet Generator skill free?
The skill is released under the MIT licence, as listed on this page. Check the licence file in the download for the full terms. Any AI agent or app you run it in may have its own pricing, which this skill does not set.
What do I need to use the AI Snippet Generator skill?
The skill lists no required tools. You need a compatible AI agent that can load skills, such as Claude with the skill installed in ~/.claude/skills/ or uploaded under Settings → Capabilities → Skills. It runs no scripts and uses no network access.
How do I install the ai-snippet-generator skill?
Download the ZIP from this page and unzip it. Put the folder in ~/.claude/skills/ for personal use, or in a project's .claude/skills/ folder. In the Claude apps you can instead upload it under Settings → Capabilities → Skills.
Will this skill make my page rank higher in search results?
No. The skill explicitly makes no promise of search ranking. It writes a candidate answer passage based only on the source you supply, and you should judge its usefulness yourself.
Can the skill check facts on the web?
No. It does not search the web and cannot verify your source externally. It works only from the text you paste, so you need to check the output against your original material.
Why does the agent ask me a question instead of answering?
If the input is empty, or a fact needed for a correct answer is missing or conflicting, the skill asks for the specific detail rather than guessing. Provide the missing source text and it will continue.

Our verdict
Use this skill if you are an SEO writer or content team that wants a draft answer passage built from your own source text, and you will review the result against that source. Pick something else if you need guaranteed search placement, web research, or fact-checked output that is published without human review.
