About This Skill
What it does
The Capability Graph Builder constructs a queryable graph representing capabilities and their relationships, using information from capability manifests. It leverages OpenAI Codex to infer missing relationships and validate compatibility declarations between skills, MCPs (Model Context Protocol), or tools. The resulting graph allows for analysis of dependencies and facilitates orchestration planning.
When to use it
- After generating manifests for skills/MCPs/tools.
- When building the orchestration system's knowledge base.
- To discover capability relationships and dependencies.
- To validate manifest consistency across resources.
- To enable graph-based queries for orchestration planning.
Key capabilities
- Graph Construction: Builds nodes (capabilities) and edges (relationships) from manifests.
- Relationship Inference: Uses Codex to discover implicit relationships based on descriptions.
- Consistency Validation: Validates bidirectional relationships (e.g., if A enables B, does B require A?).
- Path Finding: Supports queries like "what skills are needed to achieve X?".
- Subgraph Extraction: Finds all capabilities within a specific domain or with particular effects.
Example prompts
- "Build a capability graph from the manifests in the
SKILLS/directory and save it ascapability-graph.json." - "Generate a graph, using Codex to infer missing relationships, and validate consistency between manifests located in the
TOOLS/directory." - “What skills are needed to achieve [specific goal]?”
Tips & gotchas
- This skill requires capability manifests (in YAML format) as input. These are typically generated by a separate manifest generator tool.
- The skill utilizes OpenAI Codex for relationship inference and validation, so access to the OpenAI API is necessary.
- Ensure the
manifest_dircontains valid manifest files; otherwise, graph construction will fail.
