[FEATURE]: Support standard skills location at .agents/skills/

Feature hasn't been suggested before.

I have verified this feature I'm about to request hasn't been suggested before.

Describe the enhancement you want to request

There is a discussion in the agent skills standard git repo on what the standard directory for skills should be and the consensus is .agents/skills/

Current docs say only .opencode/skills and .claude/skills/ are supported currently.

agentskills/agentskills#15

This issue might be a duplicate of existing issues. Please check:

[FEATURE]: Portable Agent Packages with Bundled Skills #10430: [FEATURE]: Portable Agent Packages with Bundled Skills - proposes standardized skills structure
Support for agentskills.io Standard #7213: Support for agentskills.io Standard - requests support for the external standard referenced here
[FEATURE]: Allow custom skills directories #8533: [FEATURE]: Allow custom skills directories - would enable custom skills directory configuration
[FEATURE]: Auto-discovery of nested skills #10964: [FEATURE]: Auto-discovery of nested skills - related skills discovery approach

Feel free to ignore if none of these address your specific case.

Of those then #7213 is almost a duplicate, but it's inaccurate.

This is merged but I'm under 1.1.53 and still ignored. Did we miss anything?

In the console version 1.1.59, it also failed to load, but it works fine in the desktop version.

I can reproduce that .agents paths are not used in the cli version 1.2.1 (on NixOS). I had to symlink to .opencode/skills .

this can be closed.

you can add ~/.agent/skills or .agent/skills to your opencode config.skills

{
  "skills": [ ".where/ever/you/want/skills/" ]
}

@airtonix This is what convention over configuration is for and the title ask for standard location

So no manual specification is not the ticket, it's the opposite...

I confirm it fixed in 1.2.6 while I did experience the issue in 1.1.31

And I confirm it's not, I'm the last version.
Codex will load, OpenCode not.
That's the ticket.

➜ opencode -v
1.2.10

I can also confirm that its not picking up project skills properly in the latest version.

does this replace all/any other skills located at ./opencode/skills or append-to ?

this can be closed.

you can add ~/.agent/skills or .agent/skills to your opencode config.skills

  "skills": [ ".where/ever/you/want/skills/" ]
}

@diegohb

Actually it's like below, per schema

"skills": { "paths": ["path/to/skills"] }

@diegohb, it's supposed to be additional to the built-in paths based on the schema docs.

and then what when the next flavour of 🎺 👼🏻 ☁️ 🌤️ 🌞 "The Standard To Rule Them All" is bestowed upon our mere peasant lands ?
