[FEATURE]: ability for skills to read references and execute scripts #6007

Closed

Description

@airtonix

Feature hasn't been suggested before.

  • I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

Skills spec lists these three main components:

  • name
  • description
  • the skill prompt

It also lists these extra components that (I feel) make skills a serious alternative to mcp and tools:

  • scripts
  • references
something/
  SKILL.md
  references/
    something-guidelines.md
    example-form.pdf
    templates/
      new-file-template.txt
  scripts/
    some-useful-abstraction.sh

What's the vision for skills to read and execute these last two?

is it:

a) just let Bash(../../../../../home/myuser/.config/opencode/skill/something/scripts/some-useful-abstraction.sh) ? and let the permissions come out in the wash?
b) provide a separate SkillExec(skillname, relative_script_path, ...args) and SkillReference(skillname, relative_reference_path, ...ripgrep_args)
