FAQPage Schema
How do I verify a skill is loaded in the Starter harness?

Ask the agent to say hello or greet the workspace. The skill runs scripts/hello.sh, which prints a greeting along with the current working directory, confirming the skill was discovered and executed.

How do I run the hello script manually?

Run sh "$STARTER_DSH_DIR/skills/hello/scripts/hello.sh" from the workspace root. The script prints a greeting message that includes the current directory path.

What does the hello script output show?

It prints the text "hello from the Starter harness in" followed by the current working directory from pwd. This confirms both script execution and the workspace location.

Why does the hello script fail to run?

The script fails if STARTER_DSH_DIR is not set or if it is not executed from the workspace root. Verify the environment variable points to the Starter harness directory and that a POSIX shell is available.
