load_skill

Overview

load_skill loads the content of a skill, usually the instructions from SKILL.md, by skill name and file path.

Use it when the agent should follow a packaged workflow instead of improvising the whole execution process.

Parameters

{
  "skill_name": "skill name",
  "file_path": "skill file path"
}

What it does

• resolves the skill from the registry
• reads the skill instructions or prompt template
• returns the loaded workflow content back to the agent

When to use it

• the task matches a reusable skill
• the skill contains curated business logic
• the workflow should be standardized before execution starts

Example

{
  "skill_name": "financial-report-analyzer",
  "file_path": "skills/financial-report-analyzer/SKILL.md"
}

Notes

• load_skill loads instructions; it does not execute the workflow itself
• once loaded, the agent should follow the skill's required tools and steps
