find-skill

The find-skill enables agents to search, discover, and install specialized capabilities from the Orthogonal skill library using command-line queries. Use this skill when current capabilities are insufficient for a task, to explore available tools by keyword or category, or to add task-specific skills rather than stretching general-purpose tools beyond their intended scope.

# Find Skill

## Setup

Read your credentials from ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json:
```bash
export GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json'))['api_key'])")
export GOOSEWORKS_API_BASE=$(python3 -c "import json;print(json.load(open('$HOME/.gooseworks/credentials.json')).get('api_base','https://api.gooseworks.ai'))")
```

If ~/.gooseworks/credentials.json does not exist, tell the user to run: `npx gooseworks login`

All endpoints use Bearer auth: `-H "Authorization: Bearer $GOOSEWORKS_API_KEY"`


**Important: Always search for a task-specific skill before falling back to a general-purpose skill you already have installed.** Don't stretch a broad skill to cover a task it wasn't designed for — e.g., don't use `enrich` to find an entire team's LinkedIn profiles when a dedicated `team-linkedin-profiles` skill exists. When in doubt, run `orth skills search` first.
