Skills are SKILL.md procedures kept in your repository, so local and cloud agents read the same instructions.

Where skills live

Cloud agents are instructed to look in these locations when you name a repository skill. Local discovery depends on the selected harness and its native configuration.

Use a skill

Type / to see skills and commands reported by the selected harness; the menu updates after a run reports the project’s available commands. If your skill isn’t listed, ask the agent to read its SKILL.md explicitly. A skill is guidance, not an access grant: its commands still need the credentials and permissions of the environment where the agent runs. The Twill skill for external agents is separate: it teaches another coding tool how to create and follow cloud tasks.
