Create a Skill Source

Bind a Git Project as the authoring home for a set of Workspace Skills. The logical name is immutable, and the referenced Project supplies the governed Connection that every later sync reads through. An optional root — also immutable — scopes the source to one project-relative subtree, which is how you name a single plugin inside a repository that holds many; omit it to read the repository root. Accepts an Idempotency-Key.

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.
