#### Skill Integration During Install

Skills are integrated to `.github/skills/`:
Skills are integrated to the target-specific skills directory (e.g., `.github/skills/` for copilot, `.cursor/skills/` for cursor):

This sentence/examples only mention copilot and cursor, but this section is about Claude Skills and APM also supports .claude/skills/ and .opencode/skills/. Consider expanding the examples to include all supported skill targets (or rephrase to avoid implying only those two targets exist).

#### Skill Folder Naming

Skill folders use the **source folder name directly** (not flattened paths):

On install, APM promotes each sub-skill to a top-level `.github/skills/` entry alongside the parent — see [Sub-skill Promotion](#sub-skill-promotion) below.
On install, APM promotes each sub-skill to a top-level `{target}/skills/` entry alongside the parent — see [Sub-skill Promotion](#sub-skill-promotion) below.

### Sub-skill Promotion

When a package contains sub-skills in `.apm/skills/*/` subdirectories, APM promotes each to a top-level entry under `.github/skills/`. This ensures Copilot can discover them independently, since it only scans direct children of `.github/skills/`.
When a package contains sub-skills in `.apm/skills/*/` subdirectories, APM promotes each to a top-level entry under `{target}/skills/` (e.g., `.github/skills/`, `.cursor/skills/`, `.opencode/skills/` depending on the active target). This ensures each supported IDE can discover them independently.

{target}/skills/ is ambiguous as written because the target name (e.g., cursor) is not the same as the deployed root directory (e.g., .cursor/). Consider renaming the placeholder to something like {target_root_dir} or explicitly listing the supported directories (.github/, .claude/, .cursor/, .opencode/) in the path example so readers don't interpret it as cursor/skills/....

This issue also appears on line 268 of the same file.

See below for a potential fix:

On install, APM promotes each sub-skill to a top-level `{target_root_dir}/skills/` entry alongside the parent - see [Sub-skill Promotion](#sub-skill-promotion) below.

### Sub-skill Promotion

When a package contains sub-skills in `.apm/skills/*/` subdirectories, APM promotes each to a top-level entry under `{target_root_dir}/skills/` (for example `.github/skills/`, `.claude/skills/`, `.cursor/skills/`, `.opencode/skills/` depending on the active target). This ensures each supported IDE can discover them independently.
