Skills

Skills are profile-local workflow bundles. They let DuckAgent load focused instructions only when a task needs them.

~/.duckagent/profiles/<name>/skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md

A skill directory can include scripts, references, templates, assets, and other supporting files.

---
name: my-skill
description: Use this skill when a request needs the workflow it describes.
---
# My Skill
Instructions for how the agent should perform the workflow.

The description should explain when to use the skill. The agent can then load the skill and read supporting files on demand.

load_skill
read_skill_file
