Agent loops with Skillware

Every integration follows the same execution pattern. Skillware loads the bundle and adapts it to your runtime's tool format; your host app calls execute() and passes JSON back to the model. The diagram below is the loop you implement in code — for bundle contents, see the Introduction.

Role Steps
Skillware load, wire
Model prompt, return
Host execute
  1. bundle = SkillLoader.load_skill("<category>/<skill_name>")
  2. skill = bundle["class"]() — or SkillLoader.get_skill_class(bundle)(); bundle["module"] remains available for backward compatibility.
  3. Adapt bundle for the model (to_gemini_tool, to_claude_tool, etc.).
  4. Pass bundle["instructions"] as system context.
  5. On tool call, optionally validate arguments with skill.validate_params(arguments) against manifest parameters JSON Schema (recommended before execute() in production agent loops), then result = skill.execute(arguments) and return JSON to the model.
Step Call
load SkillLoader.load_skill(id)
wire to_*_tool(bundle) + bundle["instructions"] → model
prompt User query → model
execute Optional: skill.validate_params(args); then bundle["class"]().execute(args)
return Tool result → model

Direct path (no model)

You can also run skills directly without an LLM or agent loop (e.g., examples/token_limiter_loop.py): load the skill, call execute(args) directly, and process the returned JSON. validate_params() is optional — direct scripts and many examples skip it; skills may still validate or error inside execute().

Provider guides contain full API details. Skill pages contain copy-paste examples with skill-specific paths and sample user messages.

OpenAI-compatible hosts reuse to_openai_tool(); see the host guide and runnable Groq example.

Optional param validation: Some agent-loop examples (e.g. claude_wallet_check.py, gemini_tos_evaluator.py) call skill.validate_params(...) before execute(); others call execute() directly.

Tool name matching

Adapter Match tool calls using
Gemini SkillLoader._sanitize_gemini_tool_name(bundle["manifest"]["name"]) (e.g. compliance_tos_evaluator)
Claude manifest["name"] (may include slashes, e.g. compliance/tos_evaluator)
OpenAI to_openai_tool(bundle)["function"]["name"] (sanitized, e.g. compliance_tos_evaluator)
DeepSeek to_deepseek_tool(bundle)["function"]["name"] (same sanitization rules)
Ollama (prompt) "tool" field in the JSON block the model emits (same as manifest["name"] when the manifest uses the full registry ID)

Registry manifest names: Every bundled skill uses manifest["name"] = category/skill_name (for example office/pdf_form_filler, defi/evm_tx_handler). Match tool calls with bundle["manifest"]["name"] on Claude, or derive sanitized names from the adapter on Gemini, OpenAI, and DeepSeek (office_pdf_form_filler, defi_evm_tx_handler). Do not hardcode legacy short names in examples. SkillLoader.load_skill() warns when name diverges from the folder path for registry-layout skills; use bundle.get("registry_id") for the path-derived ID when present.

Minimal execute (no LLM)

from skillware.core.loader import SkillLoader

bundle = SkillLoader.load_skill("compliance/tos_evaluator")
result = bundle["class"]().execute(
    {
        "target_url": "https://example.com",
        "intended_action": "crawl documentation for research",
    }
)
print(result)

Reference scripts

Full runnable loops live under examples/ where listed. See the examples index for script filenames, skill IDs, per-skill pip extras, SDK extras, and required environment variables. Install each skill with pip install "skillware[<category>_<skill>]" (see Install extras). Gemini reference scripts use the google-genai SDK (import google.genai). All skill catalog pages include compact Usage Examples per provider.

Local execute / mixed means the checked-in script is not a single-provider agent loop. It either calls skill.execute(...) directly or loads multiple skills in one harness.
