Authoring Robin-Agent Skills (in-repo)

Overview

There are two places a SKILL.md can live:

1. User-local: ~/.robin/skills/<maybe-category>/<name>/SKILL.md — personal, not shared. Created via skill_manage(action='create').
2. In-repo (this skill is about this case): /home/bb/robin-agent/skills/<category>/<name>/SKILL.md — committed, shipped with the package. Use write_file + git add. skill_manage(action='create') does NOT target this tree.

When to Use

• User asks you to add a skill "in this branch / repo / commit"
• You're committing a reusable workflow that should ship with robin-agent
• You're editing an existing skill under /home/bb/robin-agent/skills/ (use patch for small edits, write_file for rewrites; skill_manage still works for patch on in-repo skills, but not for create)
