Creators — closed for now
Skill authoring is closed for now.
Every skill in the beta is published by fist.chat. There is no third-party publishing, no submission flow, and no revenue share — because none of it is built.
What exists today
Skills are versioned manifests, and the manifest format is the foundation a third-party catalogue would sit on. Read one the way you would read a certificate:
FieldWhat it declares
InputsWhat the skill takes in before it can start.
PermissionsWhat it may do — and what it will never do.
Required connectorsWhich authorized tools must be in place before it runs.
Cost & risk hintsThe spend and the consequence to expect, stated up front.
PublisherWho signed it. In the beta: fist.chat, every time.
EntrypointWhat the runtime resolves and executes.
What is missing before it can open
- A review process, so an installable manifest cannot request permissions it does not use.
- Sandboxed execution for entrypoints we did not write.
- Attribution and payout mechanics that survive a real audit.
- A revocation path when a published skill turns out to be harmful.
If you want to build one anyway
Write to partners@fist.chat with the workflow you have in mind. We will tell you honestly whether it fits the current manifest format.
