List Skills

Display all available skills organized by category with descriptions.

Safety Contract

This skill is read-only by default. Before writing a skill inventory, exporting a report, or modifying skill metadata, show the scan root, output destination, and fields included. Require explicit user approval in the current turn before writing files. Listing skills in chat or running read-only scanners does not require approval.

Purpose

Help users discover available skills in Beam Next. Shows both system skills (built-in) and user skills (custom) organized by category.

Time Estimate: Instant

Workflow

Step 1: Run Skill Scanner
