  django-patterns        bundled  available implement, plan
  our-api-rules          user     active    all
```

Status values:

* **disabled** — explicitly turned off
* **available** — exists in the catalog but not enabled
* **missing** — referenced in config but the file is not found

### skaro skills info

Show the full content of a specific skill.

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills info react-components
```

Output:

```
  react-components

  Roles: coder

  ┌──────────────────────────────────────────────────┐
  │ ## React Component Rules                         │
  │ - Functional components only — no class ...      │
  │ - One component per file, file name matches ...  │
  │ ...                                              │
  └──────────────────────────────────────────────────┘
```

### skaro skills enable

Activate a skill.

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills enable fastapi-endpoints
```

For bundled/global/project skills, this adds the name to the `active` list in `config.yaml`. For preset skills that were previously disabled, this removes them from the `disabled` list.

### skaro skills disable

Deactivate a skill.

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills disable react-testing
```

Adds the skill to the `disabled` list. Preset skills remain in the preset but are no longer injected into prompts.

### skaro skills create

Create a new custom skill from a template.

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills create our-api-rules
```

Creates `.skaro/skills/our-api-rules.yaml` with a starter template. Edit the file, then enable:

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills enable our-api-rules
```

## Examples

**Enable skills for a full-stack project without using a preset:**

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills enable typescript-strict
skaro skills enable react-components
skaro skills enable fastapi-endpoints
skaro skills enable pytest-patterns
```

**Disable a preset skill you don't need:**

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills disable react-testing
```

**Create and enable a custom team skill:**

```bash theme={null}
skaro skills create team-conventions
# Edit .skaro/skills/team-conventions.yaml
skaro skills enable team-conventions
```
