Skills Reference

Skills are specialized instruction files that the agent loads on demand when a task matches their domain. They provide conventions, patterns, and guardrails for specific task types. Each skill is a SKILL.md file that gets injected into the agent's context when relevant.

Available Skills

Use /skills or omegon skills list for the effective inventory. Omegon assembles it from the admitted shipped content pack, extensions, user skills, and project skills. Documentation does not maintain a second fixed skill list.

How Skills Work

  1. Omegon inventories skill metadata from resident content sources.
  2. Project content overrides user content, which overrides extensions and the shipped pack.
  3. Activation metadata and workspace or operator evidence decide whether a body is admitted.
  4. An admitted body is incorporated into the process-pinned content generation.

Residency does not grant tool access, host effects, executable trust, or trusted paths. A skill's external path declaration is a request that still needs operator admission. A missing or invalid shipped pack does not block Omegon; user and project skills remain local sources.
