book-to-skill

book-to-skill is a Claude Code skill that turns technical books and documents into reusable AI reference skills. It extracts content from PDFs and EPUBs, then organizes the material so an assistant can study, reference, and apply it while working. The project is useful for transforming dense manuals, textbooks, internal documentation, or technical guides into practical agent-accessible knowledge. It includes an extraction script and a SKILL.md workflow that guides how the resulting content should be used. The goal is not simply to summarize a book, but to make its knowledge available during problem solving and implementation. book-to-skill is best suited for developers and researchers who want AI assistants to work from specific long-form source material.
