+## External Skills
+
+External skills are agent skills sourced directly from GitHub repositories, curated via [skills.sh](https://skills.sh). They are downloaded and symlinked automatically — no npm install required.
+
+### Quick Start
+
+```bash
+# Search for skills
+opencode-link external-skills:find react
+
+# Add a skill to your project (updates opencode-project.json + installs immediately)
+opencode-link external-skills:add vercel-labs/agent-skills vercel-react-best-practices
+
+# Show installed external skills
+opencode-link external-skills:list
+```
+
+### How It Works
+
+1. Skills are configured in `.opencode/opencode-project.json` under `externalSkills`
+2. `opencode-link` (default run) detects the config and downloads/links them automatically
+3. Files land in `.opencode/.external-skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md` (gitignored)
+4. Symlinks are created in `.opencode/skills/<skill-name>/`
+
+### Configuration (`opencode-project.json`)
+
+```json
+{
+  "externalSkills": [
+    {
+      "source": "vercel-labs/agent-skills",
+      "skills": ["vercel-react-best-practices", "vercel-nextjs-app-router"],
+      "branch": "main",
+      "category": "optional"
+    },
+    {
+      "source": "some-org/all-their-skills"
+    }
+  ]
+}
+```
+
+| Field | Required | Default | Description |
+|-------|----------|---------|-------------|
+| `source` | yes | — | GitHub `owner/repo` |
+| `skills` | no | all | Skill names to install. Omit to install all skills in the repo. |
+| `branch` | no | `main` | Git branch to download from |
+| `category` | no | `optional` | `standard` or `optional` |
+
+### Security Checks
+
+Before downloading, each skill is audited via three security partners (ATH, Socket, Snyk):
+
+| Risk level | Behaviour |
+|------------|-----------|
+| `safe` / `low` | Installed automatically |
+| `medium` | Installed with a warning |
+| `high` | Interactive confirmation required (non-interactive: aborted) |
+| `critical` | Always skipped |
+
+Use `--force` to bypass high-risk prompts or to force reinstall an up-to-date skill.
+
+> **Note:** Security data is fetched from `add-skill.vercel.sh`. If the service is unavailable, installation continues with a warning — it never blocks.
+
+### Update Detection
+
+Skills store a SHA fingerprint (`.skill-meta.json`) after download. Subsequent runs skip skills whose SHA hasn't changed. Use `external-skills:update` to explicitly pull the latest version.
+
+```bash
+# Re-download skills where the upstream SHA changed
+opencode-link external-skills:update
+
+# Force-reinstall all skills regardless of SHA
+opencode-link --force external-skills:install
+```
+
+### GitHub Rate Limits
+
+The GitHub API is used to fetch file SHAs. Set `GITHUB_TOKEN` to increase the rate limit:
+
+```bash
+export GITHUB_TOKEN=ghp_...
+opencode-link external-skills:install
+```
+
