Crate skill 

skill

A library for managing AI agent skills across the open skills ecosystem.

This crate provides the core functionality for discovering, installing, listing, and removing agent skills. It is designed to be embedded in agent frameworks so they gain full skills ecosystem support out of the box.

Quick Start

use skill::manager::SkillManager;

let manager = SkillManager::builder().build();

// Discover skills in a repository
let skills = manager
    .discover_skills(std::path::Path::new("./my-repo"), &Default::default())
    .await?;

// List installed skills
let installed = manager.list_installed(&Default::default()).await?;

Feature Flags

• network (default) — Enables HTTP-based operations (fetching remote skills, well-known providers, GitHub API).
• telemetry — Enables anonymous usage telemetry. Disabled by default for library consumers; enabled by the CLI.
