Alessandro f8b06e0b12 Remove legacy skill prompt cleanup
Delete the empty active-skills prompt extension and its unused prompt template now that selected skills are loaded through chat history instead of protocol. Stop clearing legacy loaded_skills keys from protocol/extras in the loaded-skills hook while keeping history reattachment for compacted skill bodies.

Skills

Skills is a built-in Agent Zero plugin that manages skill loading and visibility for the current chat.

What It Does

  • loads selected skills into current-chat history
  • hides noisy skills from the model-facing available catalog, skill search, and load access
  • shows loaded skills without offering removal, because loaded skill bodies are part of chat history
  • lets users hide or show skills live per conversation
  • supports global and project scoped configurations without agent-profile variants
  • links directly to the built-in Skills list
  • links directly to the active project's Skills section when a project is active

Why This Exists

Agent Zero already supports loading skills dynamically with skills_tool, and already has great built-in skill management surfaces. What it did not have was a lightweight way to use that same history-backed skill loading from the Skills screen.

Skills fills that gap as a bundled built-in plugin. The shared skill discovery and loaded-skill ledger live in helpers/skills.py, and this plugin focuses on catalog UI, chat loading, and visibility.

Notes

  • selected skills are appended to current-chat history using the same metadata shape as skills_tool
  • loaded skills are not removable from the UI; future context compaction may reattach their bodies from the loaded-skill ledger
  • hidden skills are stored as control data, not injected into the prompt
  • hidden skill paths are stored in normalized /a0/... form so configs stay portable across development and Docker-style layouts
  • if a configured hidden skill is not visible in the current agent scope, it is skipped quietly instead of breaking catalog builds
