autoworks-ai / autovault-skill
Understand AutoVault-managed skills, when synced filesystem skills can be used without MCP, and that vault writes must go through autovault add --source local or propose_skill/update_skill.
autovault-skill
Explains that AutoVault syncs skills into normal agent skill directories as filesystem links.
Treats ~/.autovault/skills as a signed store: author outside the vault, then autovault add --source local or MCP propose_skill/update_skill.
Documents optional MCP tools and when missing MCP means use the CLI, not a hand edit.
When to use this skill
- A user asks why an AutoVault-managed skill is visible.
- An agent is about to edit SKILL.md and needs the signed-store write path.
- You are debugging stale profile sync, tampered integrity, or skill links.
