+description: "Retroactively register hand-copied skills with the vercel-labs skills CLI (global store + lockfile), wire omp via the agents provider (no repo symlinks), and extract authored overrides without twins"

+
+# Skills CLI retroactive store wiring (omp tiers)
+
+Retrofit provenance for hand-copied skills and wire them for omp on Dank workstations. Executed 2026-10-18 on blankpad; doctrine doc: `omp-docs/tools/vercel-labs-skills/skill-store-wiring.md` (repo).
+
+## Tier law (final design — do NOT reintroduce per-skill symlinks in the repo)
+| Tier | Path | Owner |
+|---|---|---|
+| Store | `~/.agents/skills/` + lockfile `~/.agents/.skill-lock.json` (v3) | `skills` CLI |
+| Authored | `<repo>/agent/skills/` real dirs | Frank, branch → PR |
+| Managed | `~/.omp/agent/managed-skills/` | `manage_skill` only |
+
+omp has NO agent id in the skills CLI (79-agent registry in `dist/cli.mjs`; `-a pi` writes `~/.agents/skills` too — pi detector keys on `~/.pi/agent`). omp reads the store DIRECTLY via its `agents` provider (`skills.enableAgentsUser`, default true; check with `read cfg://skills`). Precedence: authored (native, 100) > skillshare > ... > agents provider > managed (5). Identical copies collapse by realpath; differing same-named copies survive namespaced `agents/<name>` with a startup warning — so when authoring an override, REMOVE the store twin (`npx -y skills remove <name> -g`; prunes lockfile too) or `skills update -g` resurrects a twin.
+
+## Procedure (retroactive registration)
+1. List the repo/live skill dirs to register; identify true sources (per-skill — e.g. `find-skills` is `vercel-labs/skills`, not `mattpocock/skills`).
+2. Drift check FIRST, per skill, before anything moves: `diff -rq <live>/<name> ~/.agents/skills/<name>` after canonical install; abort-and-report on drift (byte-identical = clean cutover).
+3. Canonical install (scratch dir with a package.json; global scope): `npx -y skills add <owner>/<repo> --all -g` (+ per extra source `npx -y skills add vercel-labs/skills --skill find-skills --agent universal -g`). Artifacts: store dirs + `~/.agents/.skill-lock.json`; verify `jq '.skills|length'`.
+4. Authored extraction (only for skills the user will customize): copy dir into repo `agent/skills/<name>/`, add an "Authored override" note after frontmatter, then `npx -y skills remove <name> -g` and confirm `jq '.skills|has("<name>")' == false`.
+5. Clear repo copies of store-managed skills (repo records authored overrides ONLY). Live cutover after merge: move old dirs to /tmp snapshot, `git merge --ff-only origin/main` in the live checkout.
+6. `skills ls` from a repo containing `agent/skills` mislabels skills as Eve project skills (path collision) — attribution noise, ignore.
+7. Fresh-box recipe (three commands, no wiring): add `--all -g`, add find-skills, `remove grilling -g`.
+
+## Gotchas
+- Eve/Codex `agents/openai.yaml` files ride along from upstream; omp ignores them — prune from authored dirs (they get swept off disk elsewhere, leaving phantom ` D` in git status).
+- `skills remove` prunes only global scope if `-g` given; check lockfile after.
+- Mid-run doc readers (subagents) may see pre-cutover trees — send them a correction message, don't let stale advice ship in issue bodies.
