Parameters

Skill name (must be valid identifier)
​
str
required
Skill instructions/content for SKILL.md
​
str
Optional skill category
​
bool
default:"True"
Provenance flag marking the skill as agent-authored. Defaults to True since skills created via this API originate from the agent’s self-improvement loop. Lifecycle curator plugins only ever touch agent-created skills.
​
Optional[bool]
If True, stage the mutation for human approval instead of writing to disk. Defaults to the manager’s write_approval policy (safe-by-default). Pass propose=False to write directly in trusted/local contexts.
​
Optional[str]
Internal override for the destination skills directory. Used when applying an approved proposal so the skill lands in the directory it was staged from, independent of the approving process’s cwd. When None, the destination is resolved via :meth:_skills_base_dir.

Returns

Dict with success status and skill info
