Managing AI Agent Skill Lists with Workflow, Vault, and Git Stash
Configure akm to use workflow assets, vault assets, and writable git stash for persistent, resumable agent procedures and secret management.
Configure your akm environment to use workflow assets, vault assets, and writable git stash for persistent skill management.
Summary
Workflow assets let you store and resume procedures, turning a multi‑step release into a structured markdown file with frontmatter and step definitions.
Vault assets provide a .env‑style file that lists required secret keys without exposing their values, allowing the agent to verify secret availability.
A writable git stash keeps your skill collection in sync across machines, preventing accidental overwrites and ensuring a single source of truth.
The akm workflow commands (start, next, complete, status, list, resume) persist run state outside the conversation, enabling interruption and resumption.
Vault show returns only keys, while vault load injects secrets into a shell session without leaking them into the agent’s output.
Together, workflow assets, vault assets, and git stash give agents reliable, auditable, and secure procedural execution.
Key changes
- Workflow assets store procedures as markdown with frontmatter and step definitions
- Vault assets expose only secret keys, never values, for secure verification
- Writable git stash syncs skill collections across machines
- akm workflow commands persist run state outside the conversation
- Vault show lists keys without values
- Vault load injects secrets into shell without leaking them
