Submit a Skill proposal to its SkillSource

Open a change-proposal branch in the bound SkillSource’s repository through its governed Connection. Only a verified proposal may begin submission; expected_version must equal that reviewed proposal version, and acted_as must own and hold use_connection on the source Project’s Connection. The row first enters durable submitting with the exact original authority. After a timeout, resend the original payload (and the same Idempotency-Key when supplied): preparation, branch-head comparison, and ambiguous CAS readback recover one exact commit and branch. submitted is terminal; the human merge and ordinary sync remain the only path to a live Skill.

Checkfu support posture: alpha; hosted. Required evidence journey: skill-delivery. Deployment-specific readiness and the latest proven release are available from GET /v1/support/capabilities.
