Tool Behavior
The SkillTool enables LLMs to discover and activate skills through function calling:

The tool's description lists all available skill names and their purposes.
When the LLM calls the tool with a skill name, the full instructions are returned.
The LLM then follows those instructions to complete the task.

Usage

var skillRegistry = new SkillRegistry();
skillRegistry.LoadFromDirectory("./skills");

var skillTool = new SkillTool(skillRegistry);
conversation.Tools.Register(skillTool);

// The LLM can now discover and activate skills through function calling
