Export your personal skill or a directly authorized team skill with full content visibility. Official and summary-only skills return 403. Returns {bundle, warnings}; import the bundle object or decode its base64 files into a directory. Only supported portable frontmatter survives; warnings describe removed metadata and declared platform dependencies. Storage provenance, ownership and history are excluded. Same decoded limits as import. No guarantee of execution compatibility with other agents.
