Provider Support
Section titled “Provider Support”| Provider | Supported | Mechanism |
|---|---|---|
| claude-code | ✓ | yaml frontmatter key: user-invocable (optional bool, default true); controls /menu visibility only, not Skill tool access |
| copilot-cli | ✓ | slash-prefixed skill name in user prompt (e.g. /frontend-design) |
| cursor | ✓ | When disable-model-invocation is true, the skill becomes an explicit slash command invocable by the user rather than auto-invoked by the model. |
| devin | ✓ | Explicit @mention by skill name in Cascade input (e.g., @deploy-to-production). Always available regardless of auto-invocation eligibility. |
| factory-droid | ✓ | yaml frontmatter key: user-invocable (optional bool, default: true) |
| zed | ✓ | All installed skills are user-invocable: type / in the message editor and select a skill by name, or @skill to pick one from the completion menu. Both inject the skill's instructions as context (shown as a clickable crease button). disable-model-invocation: true removes only the model's autonomous invocation, leaving the skill user-invocable. |
| amp | ✗ | not documented — no mechanism to hide skills from user-facing menus is described; skills are managed via 'amp skill' CLI and command palette, not a slash-command invocation menu |

| gemini-cli | ✗ | |
| kiro | ✗ | |
