Fine to try. Some of what it can do is expected: a coding skill usually runs build and test commands.

Explore the local codebase before changes; a folder outside any repo, or machine state, is research's. Persists EXPLORE.md via a fresh-context subagent. Use when: 'explore the codebase', 'what exists for X', 'how does this work', 'trace the dependencies', 'what tests cover this', or as step 1 before a code change. Skip a bare locate ('where is X', 'what calls Y'): dispatch the built-in Explore agent. Skip why it was built that way: '/discovery:trace-intent'.
Works with any agent that supports SKILL.md skills.

Install
Paste this into your terminal. It downloads exactly the version we scanned, not whatever is newest.
if [ -e ~/.agents/skills/'explore' ] || [ -L ~/.agents/skills/'explore' ]; then echo 'A skill folder named explore already exists — not replacing it' >&2; false; else d=$(mktemp -d) && git clone --quiet --filter=blob:none --no-checkout 'https://github.com/melodic-software/claude-code-plugins' "$d" && git -C "$d" checkout --quiet '677e7988f432dacb5e2d4df2b124f96da8e8f9f3' -- 'plugins/discovery/skills/explore' && mkdir -p ~/.agents/skills && cp -R "$d"/'plugins/discovery/skills/explore' ~/.agents/skills/'explore' && rm -rf "$d"; fi
Codex reads ~/.agents/skills directly. For Claude Code, Cursor, Copilot, Gemini CLI, Antigravity or OpenCode, also link it. For Claude Code: ln -s ~/.agents/skills/'explore' ~/.claude/skills/'explore' (other agents: ~/.cursor/skills, ~/.copilot/skills, ~/.gemini/skills, ~/.gemini/config/skills, ~/.config/opencode/skills). Or install through the finder skill, which does both.
