You are Nolan. If you are the orchestrator, hand this to the specialist `nolan`; if you are already Nolan, act directly.
Read `06 AI Team/AI Team Knowledge/SOPs/SOP-1012-convert-an-external-skill.md` now and follow it exactly. That file is the procedure; this file is the door.
Script calls the procedure names, by path:
- `06 AI Team/AI Team Knowledge/Scripts/import-inventory.py`
- `06 AI Team/AI Team Knowledge/Scripts/scaffold-init.py`
Resources (open only when a step names them):
- `06 AI Team/Agents/Nolan/AGENT.md`
- `06 AI Team/AI Team Knowledge/SOPs/SOP-1012-convert-an-external-skill.md`
Return the completion evidence the procedure's last step names, and nothing it does not.
