Local Environment Skill Sample

This sample demonstrates how to use the LocalEnvironment with the EnvironmentToolset to allow an agent to manually discover and load skills from the environment, rather than using the pre-configured SkillToolset.

Description

The agent is configured with the EnvironmentToolset and is initialized with a LocalEnvironment pointing to the agent's directory. Instead of having skills pre-loaded, the agent uses system instructions that guide it to search for skills in the skills/ folder and load them by reading their SKILL.md files using the ReadFile tool.

This demonstrates a "manual skill loading" pattern where the agent can acquire new capabilities dynamically by reading instructions from the environment.

Sample Usage

You can interact with the agent by providing prompts that require a specific skill (like weather).

Example Prompt

"Can you check the weather in Sunnyvale?"

Expected Behavior

1. Find Skill: The agent uses the Execute tool to search for all available skills by running find skills -name SKILL.md.
2. Load Skill: The agent identifies the relevant skill and uses the ReadFile tool to read its SKILL.md file.
3. Execute Skill: The agent follows the instructions in the skill file (e.g., reading references or running scripts) to answer the user's request.
