FAQPage Schema
How do I synchronize local agent skills with upstream sources?

Synchronizing local agent skills involves using a CLI tool that reads the project lockfile to securely update specific directories, preventing dependency conflicts and accidental workspace pollution while maintaining version consistency.

What's the best way to update individual agent skills without breaking my project?

The best way to update individual agent skills safely is by performing targeted updates from the repository root using CLI-based package management, which validates paths and prevents accidental pollution of your local configuration.

Do I need Node.js and Git to run skill synchronization scripts?

Yes, you need Node.js and Git installed to execute the CLI-based package management and path validation tasks required to securely update and re-install agent skills from upstream sources.

Can I re-add legacy agent skills that lack path tracking?

Yes, you can re-add legacy agent skills that lack path tracking by running automated migration scripts that make them compatible with modern management workflows defined in the project lockfile.

Why does updating agent skills cause workspace contamination?

Workspace contamination happens during updates when bulk operations overwrite local configurations; controlled, targeted updates based on the project lockfile prevent this by validating paths and restricting changes to specific skills.
