# Repository Instructions

- Keep skills self-contained and installable by copying one folder into `$CODEX_HOME/skills`.
- Do not commit real credentials, API keys, OAuth tokens, generated images, or private logs.
- Run `node tools/validate.mjs` before committing.
- Run `node tools/build-registry.mjs` after changing any skill metadata, skill file, reference, script, or API document.
- Commit `registry/manifest.json` and `packages/*.tar.gz` because public installers and website pages may consume them directly.
