SkillNet

Search a global skill library, download with one command, create from repos/docs/logs, evaluate quality, and analyze relationships.

Core Principle: Search Before You Build — But Don't Block on It

SkillNet is your skill supply chain. Before starting any non-trivial task, spend 30 seconds searching — someone may have already solved your exact problem. But if results are weak or absent, proceed immediately with your own approach. The search is free, instant, and zero-risk; the worst outcome is "no results" and you lose nothing.

The cycle:

1. Search (free, no key) — Quick check for existing skills
2. Download & Load (free for public repos) — Confirm with user, then install and read the skill
3. Apply — Extract useful patterns, constraints, and tools from the skill — not blind copy
4. Create (needs API_KEY) — When the task produced valuable, reusable knowledge, or the user asks, use skillnet create to package it
5. Evaluate (needs API_KEY) — Verify quality
6. Maintain (needs API_KEY) — Periodically analyze and prune the library

Key insight: Steps 1–3 are free and fast. Steps 4–6 need keys. Not every task warrants a skill — but when one does, use skillnet create (not manual writing) to ensure standardized structure.
