Provider Reference

Explains Skillset's provider vocabulary and routes to canonical targets and generated support facts.

Updated

A Skillset target is an enabled provider adapter selected for a compiler run. It receives provider-native output produced by a render, which a build can write. A runtime is a concrete application or harness that may consume that output. Adding a runtime does not add a target, and rendering provider output does not prove activation.

Use the feature support matrix for the exhaustive registry-owned view of feature status across every canonical target. The authored provider pages explain how to interpret those facts: native output shapes, important unsupported or provider-native boundaries, and the evidence behind current claims. Status terms are defined once in the feature-reference support vocabulary.

Providers

  • Claude — Skillset support and provider-specific guidance for the claude target.
  • Codex — Skillset support and provider-specific guidance for the codex target.
  • Cursor — Skillset support and provider-specific guidance for the cursor target.

Reading Provider Support

A support cell describes what Skillset can render for one feature and target. It does not prove that a runtime installed, trusted, discovered, or invoked the result. Open the linked feature page for authoring shape, diagnostics, qualifications, and evidence; open the provider page for target-level constraints that cut across features.

Provider evidence is checked into the repository so ordinary builds stay deterministic and offline. Maintainers refresh that evidence through the feature-registry provider evidence procedure.

The hosted provider-validation record lists exact external pins, the surfaces each validator actually covers, negative canaries, and the internal-conformance fallback for uncovered provider behavior.

Skillset renders files. It does not install, trust, activate, symlink, or mutate user-level provider configuration. See Build Versus Activation.
