# skill-viewer
Show what is in the box. Run the bundled script from anywhere inside the repo:
```bash
python3 "$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)/skills/skill-viewer/scripts/list_skills.py"
```
It prints one line per skill (name, description) and ends with `N skills`. The count is whatever
is on disk under `skills/*/SKILL.md`; nothing is hardcoded, so a skill you add appears on the next run.
Options: `--json` for machine-readable output, `--root DIR` to point at another checkout.
If a `SKILL.md` has missing or malformed frontmatter the script names it on stderr and exits 1,
so a broken skill never silently disappears from the list.
