Hand the extracted package to your coding agent with a concrete install brief instead of figuring it out manually.
I downloaded a skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder and install it by following the included instructions. Tell me what you changed and call out any manual steps you could not complete.
I downloaded an updated skill package from Yavira. Read SKILL.md from the extracted folder, compare it with my current installation, and upgrade it while preserving any custom configuration unless the package docs explicitly say otherwise. Summarize what changed and any follow-up checks I should run.
Interact with Readwise (highlights, books, daily review) and Reader (save-for-later documents) via the bundled CLI script.
Requires READWISE_TOKEN env var. Get a token at https://readwise.io/access_token โ works for both Readwise and Reader APIs.
