Windows Batch (CMD) implementation for Windows environments.
How the dispatcher chooses a script
When a tool is called via tools/call, the SkillCatalog uses the
source_file field in each ToolDeclaration to dispatch to the correct
script. If source_file is empty, it matches scripts by name stem.
Script convention
All scripts in this skill read JSON parameters from stdin and write
a JSON result to stdout:
import json, sys
params = json.load(sys.stdin)
msg = params.get("message", "hello")
print(json.dumps({"success": True, "message": f"Python says: {msg}"}))
