Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
Self-contained
Everything the model needs lives in the instructions — no extra files to sync.
Open source

Installation

Install the Create Launcher AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
https://github.com/krishnakanthb13/antigravity_global_skills/tree/main/create_launcher
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/krishnakanthb13/antigravity_global_skills.git /tmp/antigravity_global_skills
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/antigravity_global_skills/create_launcher .claude/skills/create_launcher

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Create Launcher in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Create Launcher on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Create Launcher is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

Create Launcher (Web & Scripts)

Use this skill to generate professional-grade entry point scripts for applications.

Inputs

App Name: Name of the application (for display).
Entry Point: Main script to run (e.g., main.py, index.js).

Tooling Strategy

Use write_to_file to create the scripts.
Use run_command with pwsh (Windows) or bash (Unix) to verify dependency checks if needed.

Workflow

1. Requirements Gathering

Target OS: Windows, macOS, Linux (default to creating for ALL).
Environment: Does it need .env variables?
Dependencies: What needs to run? (npm, python, node, docker).

2. Script Generation Rules

Common Features

Single Click Launch: Scripts must run without user argument input (or have defaults).
Pre-flight Checks:
- Check if required tools (node, python) are in PATH.
- Check if node_modules or venv exists.
- Check for .env file presence.

Windows (`.bat` / `.cmd`)

Use @echo off.
Title the window.
Handle Ctrl+C gracefully if possible.

Unix (`.sh` for Mac/Linux)

Shebang: #!/bin/bash.
Permission: Remind user to chmod +x.
Trap Signals: Implement trap 'kill 0' SIGINT or similar to clean up subprocesses on exit.

3. Graceful Shutdown (The "No Orphan" Rule)

Ensure that killing the launcher kills the spawned processes.
For python scripts, consider wrapping in try-finally blocks.

4. Output

Generate the scripts in the project root.
Provide a quick Markdown snippet on how to run them.

Advanced Launcher Patterns

When generating launchers, consider these enterprise patterns:

Environment Portability: Ensure the script runs correctly regardless of the current working directory by resolving paths relative to the script itself (cd "%~dp0" on Windows, cd "$(dirname "$0")" on Unix).
Daemonization & Logging: Offer the option to run the application in the background and pipe stdout/stderr to a dedicated logs/ directory with timestamped files.
Health Checks: After starting the process, optionally ping an endpoint or check a port to confirm the app is actually running before exiting the launcher.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Create Launcher AI skill do?

Generates robust, cross-platform launcher scripts (Windows .bat, Unix .sh, Mac .sh) with dependency checking, .env handling, and graceful shutdown logic.

Why use Create Launcher on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Create Launcher is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Create Launcher in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/krishnakanthb13/antigravity_global_skills/tree/main/create_launcher. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Create Launcher?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Create Launcher?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Create Launcher with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Create Launcher AI skill free?

It is published on GitHub by krishnakanthb13. Check the repository for licensing terms. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
