Load when an agent needs to manage, install, update, remove, or validate OpenViking skills via the `ov skills` CLI. Trigger on explicit user requests about skill management, when the user mentions `ov skills`, `install skill`, `update skill`, `delete skill`, `validate skill`, or when an agent needs to discover what skills are available on the OpenViking server.
Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.
What the file says
# OpenViking (OV) Skills Management The `ov skills` command group manages agent skills on OpenViking — including installation from local directories, Git repositories, GitHub URLs, or raw content; listing, searching, inspecting, updating, and removing skills; and validating skill format locally. `ov add-skill` is the same command as `ov skills add` and takes the same flags. ## Goal Guide an agent to correctly invoke `ov skills` subcommands for skill lifecycle operations without guessing flags, source types, or update semantics. ## Load When - User explicitly requests skill management: `ov skills ...`, `install skill`, `update skill`, `delete skill`, `remove skill`. - User asks to validate a SKILL.md or skill directory. - User asks to find or search installed skills. - User asks to inspect a skill's content, files, or source. - Agent needs to discover available skills before selecting one. ## Inputs | Name | Required | Description | |---|---|---| | `subcommand` | yes | One of `list` (alias `ls`), `find`, `add`, `show`, `update`, `remove` (aliases `rm`, `delete`), `validate` | …

How to install
mdr add volcengine/openviking/ov-skills@sha256:133c5b664b7356c1The line at the top of this page pins the label v1.1.0, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
