description	A template skill — copy this folder to .ironcore/skills/ and edit it to teach IronCore a reusable procedure.

Hello, skill

This is an example SKILL.md — a reusable set of instructions IronCore can pull into a turn on demand. Copy this folder to ~/.ironcore/skills/<your-skill>/ (trusted, every workspace) or <workspace>/.ironcore/skills/<your-skill>/ (first-use confirmed) and replace the body with your own steps.

What a good skill body looks like

Write it as if briefing a capable teammate who has not seen this repo before:

1. State the goal in one sentence.
2. Give the concrete steps, in order, with the exact commands or file paths.
3. Say what "done" looks like, and what to do when a step fails.

For example, a real skill might say:

To add a new provider adapter: create ironcore/providers/<name>.py subclassing the base Provider, register it in the provider registry, add a tests/providers/test_<name>.py that exercises complete and stream against MockProvider, then run uv run --extra dev pytest tests/providers -q and confirm it is green.

Notes

• Only this short description rides every prompt; the body is loaded lazily when you run /skill hello-skill or the model calls use_skill(name='hello-skill').
• If your skill references a script, the model runs it through the normal command tool — it is still gated by the mode/deny-list/jail. A skill cannot execute anything on its own.
