Skill Trigger Mechanism
Agent uses skills through Progressive Disclosure:
- Discovery: Scans all skill names and descriptions
- Activation: When task matches description, loads full SKILL.md
- Application: Incorporates skill instructions into reasoning process
Installation Locations
- Project Level:
.agent/skills/
- Global Level:
~/.gemini/antigravity/skills/
Best Practices
- Let Agent automatically choose appropriate skills
- No manual invocation needed, skills trigger automatically based on context
- If skill doesn't trigger, check if description is clear enough
