Pull request overview
This pull request adds support for slash command configuration fields to skills by extending the skill frontmatter with three new attributes: userInvokable, disableModelInvocation, and argumentHint. These fields enable skills to control their visibility and invocation behavior, similar to how agents work.
Changes:
- Added validation for
userInvokableanddisableModelInvocationattributes for skills - Extended skill attribute list to include
argumentHint,userInvokable, anddisableModelInvocation - Added autocompletion support for the new boolean attributes with true/false suggestions
- Implemented filtering to hide non-user-invokable skills from the slash command completion menu
