Description

Description

A custom skill placed in .opencode/skills/grilling/SKILL.md is not discovered by OpenCode, despite:

  • File being correctly named SKILL.md (all caps)
  • Frontmatter containing both name and description
  • Skill name matching directory name (grilling)
  • No conflicting permissions or duplicate skill names
  • Complete restart of OpenCode (running from VSC terminal)
Plugins

OpenCode version

Steps to reproduce
  1. Create .opencode/skills/grilling/SKILL.md with valid frontmatter
  2. Restart OpenCode completely
  3. Check available skills - the skill is not listed

Expected Behavior
The skill should appear in <available_skills> section of the system prompt

Actual Behavior
Only built-in skills (e.g., customize-opencode) are visible
