Two AI assistants are configured for this project, each with their own skill directory:
.github/skills/.gemini/skills/Skills with the same purpose exist in both, sometimes under different names and with different depth. This index maps them so you can find the richer version when needed.
| Topic | Copilot Skill | Gemini Skill | Notes |
|---|---|---|---|
| Testing | testing-workflow | testing-workflow | Copilot version covers testFailure tool and PYTHONPATH; Gemini version emphasises full suite preference and container detection |
| Settings & config | settings-management | settings | Gemini version is more comprehensive (22-point guide + PR checklist); Copilot version covers ccd() and get_setting_value() usage |
| MCP activation | mcp-activation | mcp-activation | Copilot version covers VS Code window reload; Gemini version covers Gemini CLI session restart |
| Project navigation | project-navigation | project-navigation | Copilot version has full path tables and env vars; Gemini version is a brief reference |
| Plugin dev | plugin-run-development | plugin-development | Copilot version is comprehensive (data contract, phases, formats); Gemini version is a brief checklist pointing to docs/PLUGINS_DEV.md |
| Devcontainer | devcontainer-services + devcontainer-setup + devcontainer-configs | devcontainer-management | Copilot splits into 3 focused skills; Gemini combines into one (uses docker exec) |

When adding a skill, create it in both directories to keep both AI systems current:
.github/skills/<name>/SKILL.md — add an entry to the skills table in .github/copilot-instructions.md.gemini/skills/<name>/SKILL.md — auto-discovered by Gemini CLI via YAML frontmatterKeep the body content identical between both files. Only the frontmatter name/description may differ slightly to match each system's discovery heuristics.
