After installing a skill, manage where and how it can be used.

​
View installed skills

In the desktop app, connect to the gateway and click the Skills icon in the bottom bar. For each skill, review:
  • name
  • version
  • status
  • source
  • enabled/disabled state
  • implicit/not implicit state
  • dependency diagnostics
  • validation issues
  • security findings
  • audit timeline

​
Enable, Disable, Or Change Implicit Mode

Disable skills by default until you know what they do. After a skill is trusted, decide whether it should be implicit. An implicit skill can be picked up automatically when Pioneer decides it is relevant. A not implicit skill stays available, but agents should use it only when you explicitly ask for that skill. Recommended flow:
1

Install the skill

Install and wait for validation.
2

Inspect the skill

Read its description, dependencies, and security findings.
3

Test on a sandbox gateway

Use a sandbox gateway first.
4

Run a safe test

Ask the agent to explain the skill before letting it call tools.
5

Choose implicit behavior

Keep the skill not implicit unless it is trusted and broadly useful.
6

Use in real work

Use the skill only on gateways where it is needed.

​
Update a skill

When a new version is available:
  1. Review the source and changelog if available.
  2. Update in a sandbox first.
  3. Recheck dependencies and security findings.
  4. Run a safe test.
  5. Use the updated skill on production gateways only after testing.

​
Uninstall a skill

Uninstall a skill when:
  • you no longer use it
  • it has risky permissions
  • dependencies are broken
  • you want to replace it with a newer package
  • it was installed on the wrong gateway
Uninstalling removes that skill from the selected gateway. Other gateways are not affected.

​
Audit history

Use the audit timeline to answer:
  • Who installed or updated the skill?
  • When did policy change?
  • Was the skill blocked?
  • Did dependencies change?
  • Were there validation warnings?

​
Good management habits

  • Keep a sandbox gateway for testing skills.
  • Avoid enabling skills globally unless needed.
  • Keep specialized skills not implicit.
  • Review skill tools before allowing write access.
  • Remove unused skills.
  • Recheck skill health after OS or dependency changes.
