Questions

Before you install.

What exactly is a skill?

A skill is a document your AI loads on demand: a SKILL.md with the method, reference files, a cheatsheet and a provenance manifest. The model answers from it and replies [NOT IN SOURCE] instead of inventing.

Which AIs does it work with?

Claude, ChatGPT, Gemini, Copilot and any tool that reads a SKILL.md. Drop the file into your AI of choice — a Claude Project, a ChatGPT Custom GPT, a Gemini Gem, or your tool's skills folder.

Will it answer from the source?

Yes. Every package carries explicit answering rules: cite the section for each claim, label authority vs reasoning, and never invent a figure, citation or rule.

Is it kept current?

Yes. Method and donor skills are reviewed quarterly, and members can re-download the latest version any time from their dashboard.
