Skill Selection

New aibox projects list the standard processkit operating skills explicitly in [skills].include. This makes skill selection a direct comment/uncomment workflow in aibox.toml without relying on legacy package tiers.

Use [skills].include for explicit additions and [skills].exclude for explicit removals:

[skills]
include = [
  "pk-doctor",
  "status-briefing",
]
exclude = [
  # "skill-to-omit",
]

Legacy package tiers (minimal, managed, software, research, product) are still accepted for compatibility under [context].packages when [context].mode = "processkit", but explicit [skills] selection is the preferred control surface.

Where the Content Lands​

After aibox init and aibox apply with [context].mode = "processkit" and [processkit].version pinned:

context/
├── skills/                              # Editable copies of installed skills
├── processes/                           # release, code-review, feature-development, bug-fix
├── schemas/                             # primitive schemas
├── state-machines/                      # state machine definitions
└── templates/
    └── processkit/
        └── v0.25.7/
            ├── context/
            │   ├── skills/
            │   └── schemas/
            ├── .processkit/
            │   └── packages/            # The package YAMLs themselves
            └── AGENTS.md

The version path (v0.25.7 above) is whatever [processkit].version is pinned to in aibox.toml.

Harness-only projects do not install this content and do not create context/templates/processkit/.

Upstream Source​

The skills are owned by processkit:

To consume a fork or a private mirror, point [processkit].source at it (see [processkit] configuration).
