This check depends on the host dropping the non-serializable
code. If a regression makes the host serialize1n,JSON.stringifythrows inside the request handler, the host sends no response, and the client request never settles.assert.rejectsthen blocks forever and CI hangs instead of reporting a failure.Wrap the two calls in a bounded race, or attach a request timeout in the client path used here.

Inline comments:
In `@package.json`:
- Around line 124-125: Update the CI configuration in build.yml to run both the
check:skill-api and check:skill-lifecycle package scripts alongside the existing
registered harness checks, ensuring both validations execute during the build
workflow.
In `@scripts/check-skill-lifecycle.mts`:
- Around line 161-181: Add a counter around the patched skillDao.byId in the
createSession race test, increment it whenever the stub is invoked, and assert
after createSession that the counter is greater than zero. Keep the existing
delete-after-read behavior and snapshot assertions unchanged.
- Around line 54-61: Make runtime cleanup asynchronous by exposing an awaitable
cleanup method on AgentSessionRuntime that waits for AgentSupervisor.close() and
ToolSource.close() completion, then update promptOf to await that method before
returning the prompt. Ensure the script awaits promptOf before process.exit(0).
In `@server/src/http/routes/skills.ts`:
- Around line 69-76: Update the icon validation in the skills PATCH flow so
unsupported string values return the existing 400 error response instead of
falling back to "sparkles"; preserve the default behavior only when body.icon is
undefined, and keep valid SKILL_ICON_KEYS unchanged.
In `@server/src/runtime/runtime-ipc.ts`:
- Around line 104-105: Update the error response construction in the runtime IPC
handler to include the code whenever errorCode(e) returns a defined value,
including an empty string; check specifically for undefined instead of using
truthiness, while preserving omission for undefined codes.
In `@test/e2e/skills-custom.spec.ts`:
- Around line 158-163: Update the assertion after awaiting alphaResponse in the
skill-loading test to verify that the description remains “Beta description”
across a short stability window, rather than relying on a single toHaveValue
poll. Keep the existing response synchronization and releaseAlpha flow
unchanged.
In `@web/src/dashboard/features/skills/SkillsView.tsx`:
- Around line 161-165: Disable the Cancel button while the createSkill or
updateSkill save request is pending, using the existing pending/loading state
used by the form. Update the button in the SkillsView form near the onCancel
handler, while preserving normal cancellation when no save request is active.
- Around line 370-379: Update the remove function to increment editReq.current
immediately after deletion confirmation and before calling api.deleteSkill,
invalidating any pending skill edit request so it cannot reopen the deleted
skill’s editor.

Description
Closes #4.
This adds custom personas, called Skills, that each user can define with a name, description, system prompt, and icon. They are managed through runtime CRUD and can be chosen as a session mode alongside the personas that ship by default. A persona is declarative prompt data and grants no execution authority, and it reuses the ownership model already applied to other data a user creates at runtime, so it needs no connector or daemon machinery.
Backend
The SkillRegistry resolves both the default personas and a user's own personas when a session is created. A custom prompt is then frozen into that session, while a restore that carries no stored snapshot resolves only the default personas. Backing this are a new skills table, a DAO scoped to the owner, and the /skills CRUD routes. SessionMode opens from a closed union to
BuiltinSessionMode | UserSkillId, yet the raw persisted mode stays a string, so a session read model never casts stored data to claim that a historical or damaged value is still a valid SessionMode. A custom prompt is snapshotted insessions.skill_prompt, which means an edit reaches only later sessions and a deletion leaves existing sessions untouched. A team member inherits the actor's frozen snapshot exactly; that snapshot stays authoritative even when its historical mode no longer resolves, and an actor that has no snapshot must resolve to a default persona or provisioning fails before any member row is written, which matches the runtime restore contract.Listing uses a summary projection that never touches the prompt column, and a separate detail route serves the prompt for the edit flow. Skill ids are generated in the
skill_form and constrained at the database boundary. Session mode resolution lives in one place in the manager, where a missing mode falls back to coding and an explicit unknown mode returns a 400. HTTP validates the request fields, the database enforces the stored skill invariants, and the runtime validates a stored mode that has no snapshot before the constructor does anything with side effects, and error codes stay intact across the runtime IPC boundary. A custom persona never turns on security mode or alters sandbox authority, and its inputs are limited by byte length, rejected rather than truncated when too long, checked for type, drawn from a shared icon allowlist, and capped at 100 skills per user.Frontend
A Skills panel manages personas and shows the custom ones next to the default options in New Session. The default personas stay on the client and localized, while the API returns only the current user's custom personas. The edit flow fetches the prompt detail on demand and ignores stale responses that arrive out of order. Launching a custom persona carries its summary into New Session, so the right option renders and is selected before the list finishes refreshing.
Deferred: sharing and importing personas, which would need their own design for trust, provenance, and prompt validation.
Verification
Verified locally. The typecheck, skill lifecycle, skill API, and runtime IPC suites all pass, the agent team checks pass on both a fresh and an upgraded schema, and the Playwright e2e suite passes.
