In Atlas, /skill refers to reasoning effort. It is not a command for installing a plugin or a reusable assistant skill.
Use /modify with one script or two to eight compatible scripts selected in Unity’s Project window. Review and test commands also require an appropriate selected script. Attach additional context separately when it helps explain the task.
