Include ~/.agents/skills in default skill discovery paths

Include ~/.agents/skills in default skill discovery

Problem

DevSpace currently discovers skills from:

• the default agent directory, which defaults to ~/.codex and therefore includes ~/.codex/skills
• project-local .pi/skills
• extra paths provided through DEVSPACE_SKILL_PATHS

However, ~/.agents/skills is also a common skills directory used by many agent workflows. It is also the default location used by npx skill when installing Codex-compatible skills.

This creates a confusing setup issue: a skill can be installed successfully under ~/.agents/skills, but DevSpace does not show it in open_workspace unless the user manually sets DEVSPACE_SKILL_PATHS.

Example

A skill installed at:

~/.agents/skills/understand/SKILL.md

does not appear in the open_workspace skills list with the default DevSpace configuration.

It appears only after manually setting:

DEVSPACE_SKILL_PATHS="$HOME/.agents/skills"

Expected behavior

DevSpace should include ~/.agents/skills in the default skill discovery paths, or make the effective default for DEVSPACE_SKILL_PATHS include that directory.

Suggested default discovery order:

• ~/.codex/skills
• ~/.agents/skills
• project .pi/skills
• user-provided DEVSPACE_SKILL_PATHS entries

Why this matters

• ~/.agents/skills is used by many agent workflows.
• npx skill installs Codex-compatible skills there by default.
• Users can otherwise install a skill successfully but still think DevSpace failed to load it.
• Adding this default path would reduce setup friction and better match the current agent ecosystem.

I also hope the project level skill path can be set by env like DEVSPACE_PROJECT_SKILL_PATH, as I may use codex or claude code

i was thinking of supporting all of the coding agent's skill path, just like opencode supports it, all internally so no need to have configurations or anything
