## Autohand Code Discovery

Autohand Code discovers skills from user-level and project-level skill directories:

```text
~/.autohand/skills/<skill>/
<project>/.autohand/skills/<skill>/
```

Use the cataloged overview skill when you want high-level Microsoft SDK grounding:

```bash
autohand --skill-install microsoft-skills
autohand --skill-install microsoft-skills --project
```

For a specific repository skill, copy or symlink only the skill directories relevant to the current project:

```bash
git clone https://github.com/microsoft/skills.git microsoft-skills
mkdir -p your-project/.autohand/skills
cp -r microsoft-skills/.github/skills/azure-cosmos-db-py your-project/.autohand/skills/
```

## Progressive Disclosure
