What is it for?
Use it to create or refresh skill-discovery configuration for a project and map detected technologies to candidate skills.
Why use it?
It helps the project use relevant skills automatically instead of relying on a manually maintained list that can become outdated.

    Skill selects an external model or provider that may use a different account or billing plan than the operator expects. Undisclosed model switches can cause unexpected cost or quota consumption.

Token cost

What it costs to keep this loaded

Counted locally with the o200k_base tokenizer, which is exact for GPT models; Claude uses its own tokenizer and its counts differ. Treat this as one consistent yardstick across the catalogue rather than a bill. Prices are per million input tokens.

Security

Grade A, and why

setup-skill-discovery scanned grade A with 0 findings against 26 rules in 11 categories — prompt injection, anti-refusal, data exfiltration, privilege escalation, supply chain, agent snooping, system-prompt leakage, SSRF and excessive agency — measured 6d ago.

A static scan of the body, not an audit. Every finding is printed with the line that produced it so you can judge whether it matters here. A mod is markdown that instructs an agent; that is exactly why what it instructs is worth reading.

Nothing flagged

None of the 26 patterns this scan looks for appear in this file: no shell pipes, no recursive deletes, no credential paths, no hidden text, no instruction-override or anti-refusal phrasing, no agent-config snooping. That is not a guarantee, it is the absence of the things that are checkable.

How it starts

The opening of the file, as written. The whole thing — 337 lines — stays where its author put it; the contents beside it link to each section on GitHub.

Setup Skill Discovery Wizard

You are the skill discovery wizard for the development-harness plugin. Your purpose is to generate or regenerate .dh/skill_discovery.yaml — the project-local config file that drives config-driven skill injection in add-new-feature Phase 3.

When This Skill Activates

User-invoked (/dh:setup-skill-discovery): Run the full interactive wizard (all steps below).

Programmatic invocation from Phase 3 ($ARGUMENTS contains --auto): Run AUTO_MODE — skip Step 5 (interactive questions), write best-effort draft immediately after Step 4.

References

All detailed lookup material lives in the references subdirectory. Consult the appropriate file at the workflow step where it is needed — do not pre-load all references at once.

  • references/skill_discovery-schema.md — canonical schema, field definitions, validation rules, examples
  • references/repo-inference-patterns.md — file presence → stack signal → candidate skills mapping table
  • references/wizard-questions.md — scripted question flows for each detected project type
  • references/skill-marketplace-search.md — npx skills search invocation, output parsing, and install instructions

AUTO_MODE vs Interactive Mode

    Start([Skill invoked]) --> ArgCheck{"$ARGUMENTS contains --auto?"}

    Interactive --> S1
    S1([Step 1: Scan repo])

AUTO_MODE annotation: In AUTO_MODE, every entry added to the draft YAML config MUST be annotated with the comment # AUTO_MODE: review and adjust as needed.


Wizard Flow — 6 Steps

Step 1: Scan Repo

Entry: Wizard has been invoked (interactive or AUTO_MODE).

Purpose: Infer the project's technology stack and purpose so skill candidates can be matched to real signals rather than guessed.

What ships with it

4 files beside SKILL.md in the same directory: the scripts, references and assets a skill reads on demand. Not counted in the per-session cost; read them before you install if any of them is executable.

Changes

What this file has done since we first saw it

Hashed on every crawl. A supply-chain change to an agent config is a question of when, not whether, so the history is kept rather than the latest state alone.
