Overview
skills.md is a remote skill platform for AI agents. The agent discovers a skill, asks for a quote when the run costs money, sends inputs to the hosted runtime, and receives artifacts back in the workspace.

Mental model
- Install the CLI once on the machine.
- Register the MCP server with the agents you use.
- Discover skills from the remote registry.
- Run a skill by name.
- Download outputs under
.skills/exports/<skill>/<run-id>/.

The .skills folder is a workspace for runtime state and outputs, not a copy of the skill catalog.
| Folder | Purpose |
|---|---|
.skills/exports/<skill>/<run-id>/ | Files generated by a skill run. |
.skills/runs/<run-id>/ | Local metadata, logs, and receipts for a run. |
.skills/pins/ | Local preferences for commonly used remote skills. |
.skills/cache/ | Safe cache entries that can be rebuilt. |
Next step
Follow the quickstart, then connect your agent through MCP.
