- Prefer DeepSeek's native
/skillcommands over ad hoc copying. - For GitHub/community skills, inspect the
SKILL.mdbefore recommending trust. Treat scripts and companion files as untrusted until reviewed. - After installing, tell the user to restart the session if the skill does not appear immediately in the available-skills list.
- If a skill conflicts by name with a workspace skill, explain that workspace
skill directories take precedence over global
~/.deepseek/skills.
Do not execute community skill scripts unless the user explicitly asks and the skill has been reviewed or trusted.
