# hello-files

This is a minimal example skill included with Synaplan Desktop. Use it to confirm
that a skill can create a file on this computer, inside the out-box, under the
folder allowlist.

## Steps

1. Use the `Write` tool to create `hello.txt` in the out-box with a friendly,
   one-line greeting.
2. Tell the user the full path where the file was saved.

This skill does not run any programs — it only writes a text file.
