A Skill Set is a reusable selection of pinned skill revisions. It gives a project the context it needs without installing every skill globally or relying on mutable source folders.

​
Choose a starting point

Start from the Library

Select exact skills when you already know the project configuration you want.

Capture a project

Detect the skills a working project already uses and preserve that setup as a reusable Set.

​
Create from Library skills

In Desktop, open Skills, select the packages, and choose Create Skill Set. Review the Set name, harnesses, and pinned revisions before saving. From the CLI:
Each package enters the content-addressed local Library and is verified before the manifest is saved.

​
Capture an existing project

In Desktop, open Skill Sets and choose Capture Project. Select the project folder and review the detected harness registries and skills. From the project directory:
Capture deduplicates identical packages used by several harnesses. Conflicting same-name packages block capture until you resolve them.

​
Preview project scope

Planning is read-only:
Review new destinations, unchanged destinations, missing revisions, and conflicts. Apply only after the plan matches the intended project boundary:
Apply changes only supported skill locations inside the selected project. It stops before mutation when an unmanaged conflicting revision exists and returns a receipt for owned paths and rollback.

Success criteria

  • Every selected skill is pinned to an immutable revision.
  • The Set contains only skills needed by this kind of project.
  • The plan shows every destination before mutation.
  • Conflicts remain visible instead of being overwritten.
  • The apply receipt records what SelfTune can safely roll back.
