import-skill

Installs a skill from a downloaded zip or folder, after a security review.

Reach for it when

Someone sent you a skill, or you downloaded one from a library, and you are about to install it.

Unpacks a skill from a zip or a folder and installs it. The security review runs first, every time, and it is not optional.

Fires on “install this skill”, “I downloaded a skill”, or pointing at a .zip or .skill file.

The reason for the review step: skills execute code on your machine. A skill file is not a document. Treating it like one is how you install something hostile without noticing.
