Skill-as-API
Confidential multi-agent coordination for agentic software engineering
Skill-as-API is a coordination protocol for agentic software engineering where a skill’s public view is limited to its name, typed schemas, and trust tier, while the body — code plus system prompt — is closure-captured and never crosses the wire. Four defense layers address IP extraction, prompt theft via injection, and trust drift.
