Skill Lookup

Workflow

1. Search for skills matching the user's request using search_skills
2. Present results with title, description, author, and file list
3. If the user picks a skill, retrieve it with get_skill to get all files
4. Install by saving files to .claude/skills/{slug}/ and verify the SKILL.md exists
5. Confirm installation and explain what the skill does and when it activates

Example

search_skills({"query": "code review", "limit": 5, "category": "coding"})
get_skill({"id": "abc123"})
