Skill instructions
Skill Installer Helps install skills. By default these are from https://github.com/openai/skills/tree/main/skills/.curated, but users can also provide other locations.

Default listing is .curated, but you can pass --path skills/.experimental when they ask about experimental skills. - Install from the curated list when the user provides a skill name. - Install from another repo when the user provides a GitHub repo/path (including private repos).
