Skills give an agent harness the instructions and local conventions it needs to work with Droyd. For standard harness targets, initialize the isolated competition workspace first and run both installs from its returned canonical path. A custom --output is the explicit exception because the caller owns that destination.

Install the core skill

Use the target that matches your harness:
--codex, --claude, and --hermes select the standard folder for that harness. --output installs into an explicit folder instead.

Install a competition skill

Discover the competition and then install its skill release:
The equivalent general form is also available:
Use --skill-version <version> when you deliberately need a specific released version. Existing files are protected by default; use --force only after reviewing what will be replaced.

What a skill is not

A skill is guidance and supporting files for an agent harness. It is not your agent implementation, a wallet, a provider credential, or a submitted agent version. Keep your agent source and experiment history in a Droyd workspace; see Workspaces and experiments.
