find-skills

name	find-skills
description	Discover skills beyond those shown in the session prompt by listing every configured skill library and its skills. Use when the available skills are not enough, or to browse which skill libraries are configured.

Find Skills

The session prompt only lists a subset of available skills. When you need more, discover them from the same source the ? autocomplete uses: the completion config at $PI_CODING_AGENT_DIR/settings/completion.json (default ~/.pi/agent/settings/completion.json).

List all skills

Resolve list-skills.mjs against this skill's directory (the parent of this SKILL.md) and run it:

node <this-skill-dir>/list-skills.mjs

The script prints every skill, grouped by library and prefixed with the library's label, each with its description and the absolute path to its SKILL.md. It validates the config and exits non-zero with a clear message if a library entry is not an object with non-empty path and label.

Read a skill

Each listed skill ends with an absolute path to a SKILL.md. Read that path to load the skill. When a skill references a relative path, resolve it against that skill's own directory (the parent of its SKILL.md).

Config format

Each library is an object with two required fields:

{
  "skillsRoots": [
    { "path": "~/skills",
