This Skill guides OCaml developers through installing, switching, pinning, and managing packages with the opam toolchain.
Initialize an OCaml project by installing dependencies and selecting a switch, e.g., opam install dune merlin and opam switch create 5.1.0.

opam is OCaml's package manager that automates dependency installation and management. Use `opam install` to add packages like dune and merlin, `opam upgrade` to update them, and `opam remove` to uninstall. opam tracks all dependencies across your project workspace.
An opam switch isolates OCaml compiler versions and package sets for different projects. Create a switch with `opam switch create 5.1.0` to pin a specific compiler version, or list existing switches with `opam switch list`. Each switch maintains its own environment and dependencies.
opam pinning locks a package to a specific version or local path, useful for development and testing. Use `opam pin add package-name /path/to/local` for local packages or `opam pin add package-name https://github.com/user/repo` for remote sources. Pinned packages override repository versions.
Yes, opam supports custom repository management. Add repositories with `opam repository add`, list configured ones with `opam repository list`, update them with `opam repository update`, and search packages with `opam search`. This lets you access private or alternative package sources.
No, opam automates environment setup. Run `eval $(opam env)` to integrate opam into your current shell session, or opam handles this automatically in new sessions. This sets up paths and variables needed for the active switch and installed packages.
dune is the standard OCaml build system and integrates seamlessly with opam. Install dune via `opam install dune`, and opam resolves its dependencies automatically. opam handles compilation and linking after dune orchestrates the build.
