GitHub

管理技能注册表，在技能增删改后重建索引。通过gentle-ai命令或手动扫描SKILL.md，去重并生成.registry文件，支持持久化至Engram，确保代理能准确定位和调用技能。

    "name": "skill-registry",
    "license": "MIT",

Activation Contract

Use this skill after installing, removing, creating, moving, or renaming skills, or when a delegator needs a fresh skill index.

Hard Rules

The registry is an index, not a compiler or summary. SKILL.md remains the source of truth.
Do not generate or inject compact rules by default; preserve author intent by passing exact skill paths to subagents.
Always write .atl/skill-registry.md, whether or not Engram is available.
Save the registry to Engram as topic_key: skill-registry when available, with capture_prompt: false.
Generate the registry with gentle-ai skill-registry refresh --cwd <project>: it owns the scan order, deduplication, and the skills it never indexes. Scan by hand only when that command is unavailable.
When scanning by hand, skip _shared and skill-registry; deduplicate by skill name, preferring project-level skills over user-level skills.
Add .atl/ to .gitignore when possible unless explicitly disabled.

Decision Gates

Situation	Action
Same skill exists globally and in project	Keep the project-level skill
Same skill exists in multiple global locations	Keep the first source in scan order
No skills found	Write an empty registry so agents stop searching blindly
Agent will delegate work	Select matching registry rows and pass their `SKILL.md` paths

Execution Steps

Run gentle-ai skill-registry refresh --cwd <project> (add --force after skill changes); it writes .atl/skill-registry.md. If it reports the refresh was skipped (not a project), stop: there is no registry to persist. If it succeeds, go to step 4. If it fails, report the error instead of scanning by hand.
Only if the command is unavailable: scan all known user and project skill directories for */SKILL.md, reading frontmatter only as needed to extract name and description trigger text.
Render .atl/skill-registry.md with scanned sources, registry contract, skill name, trigger/description, scope, and exact path.
Persist to Engram when available using title: skill-registry, topic_key: skill-registry, type: config, and capture_prompt: false.
Return the registry path, skill count, cache status, and whether Engram was updated.
