Skills catalog
Okami ships with 14 packaged skills (skills/), all scanned. Frontend skills are contract-forced and become a gate; the rest appear as a light catalog and are loaded…

Skills follow the agentskills.io format: a SKILL.md with metadata (name, description, difficulty) + instructions, and optional support files. The description enters the light catalog; the body is loaded when the skill is invoked. Skills with a difficulty metadata auto-expand into more granular guidance for weak models.
