Np. Still learning about how to reference agentskills from my coding LLM here. Haven't yet worked with MCP or A2A much. I should port instruction prompts from each project's AGENTS.md to reusable skills in .claude/skills/skillname/SKILL.md ; so that I can reference "/skillname" in a prompt to reuse that prompt text. Copilot looks for agent skills in .claude/skills/, .github/skills/, or .agents/skills/ . FWIU there are package managers for agent skills? PAKS: https://github.com/stakpak/paks vercel-labs/skills: https://github.com/vercel-labs/skills : export DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1 npx skills add vercel-labs/agent-skills https://skills.sh/docs/cli A reproducibility, traceability, and auditability concern: How to show the text of the exact version of the skill referenced in each input prompt in each chat log?
