Skills v2 — trigger-driven skill assembly tuned for small local models. Instead of exposing skills as model-facing tools, ShellPilot's harness deterministically injects only the guidance relevant to the current runtime state, keeping a 4B model focused.

Highlights

  • Crisp deterministic triggers — ALWAYS_ON, ENABLED, PLAN_PROPOSED, PLAN_ACTIVE, PLAN_BLOCKED, WEB_ENABLED. No intent inference; every trigger has an exact predicate.
  • Four builtin skills:
    • planning — proposal/active/blocked mode references; the harness shows only the rule for the current plan phase.
    • context-management — always-on, tiny operating rules for file triage and context budgeting.
    • web-grounding — active only when web tools are actually registered.
    • skill-authoring — opt-in via [skills] enabled.
  • Read-only resources — skills may bundle references/ and templates/; the relevant reference is selected by the harness.
  • Script discovery (not execution) — scripts/manifest.json is discovered and validated for visibility, but execution is deferred to v0.8.0 with its own safety design. No skill code runs in this release.
  • Enriched inspection — /skills shows triggers, resources, status, active state, and reasons; /context shows per-block token estimates, injection state, and skip reasons.
  • Slimmer base prompt (PROMPT_VERSION 4) — proposal-time discipline stays in the base prompt; execution and blocker discipline live in the planning skill.

Notes

  • [skills] enabled is config-file only (no env var, no /config set, no overrides).
  • Skill resource discovery is path-safety hardened (rejects traversal/absolute/symlink escapes) and bounded (per-file and per-folder caps) so a stray skill folder can't read outside its root or stall startup.
  • Reserved builtin names cannot be shadowed by user skills.

Deferred (on record)

  • Skill script execution → v0.8.0 (controlled runner + approval/precheck integration).
  • Intent-inference triggers (debugging/verification/brainstorming) and richer workflow skills → v0.9.0 candidates.

Validated live on gemma4:e4b. Full test suite (832) and CI green on Python 3.11 and 3.14.
