## What it does

This skill sits in the Visual Content category and targets SVG icon tasks. It fires on its own when a request contains "svg icon generator", "svg generator" or just "svg". The agent then follows the skill's instructions: break the job into steps, produce code and configs, compare the result against common standards.

Inside you get a set of instructions plus an error table. Three cases are covered: an invalid configuration caused by missing required fields, a missing tool caused by an uninstalled dependency, and a permission denial caused by insufficient access. The skill is allowed `Read`, `Write`, `Edit`, `Grep` and `Bash(cmd:*)`, so it can open files, edit them and run commands.

Worth installing if you build interface icons often and would rather not re-explain the task to the agent every time. Compatibility is stated for Claude, while the installer also covers other platforms. No external service or key is involved — everything happens on your project files.

## When to use it
- generate a set of SVG icons for an interface
- make scattered icons follow one visual style
- get a step-by-step plan for visual asset work
- debug an icon that will not render in the project
- check SVG markup before committing

## Example prompts
- Generate a trash SVG icon matching the style of the files in `assets/icons`
