Skills and npm registry
Direct download
Use an exchanged JWT with skills:read:
format accepts skill or zip and defaults to skill. Both are binary archive
attachments; a .skill package uses a ZIP container. Unknown and unentitled
skills both return 404. Direct downloads use private, no-store caching.
npm registry
The npm read registry uses the raw API key, because npm cannot perform the
API-key-to-JWT exchange. Its linked client must be active and carry skills:read.
Keep the key outside committed .npmrc files:
Use that configuration in a trusted development or build environment and choose an entitled package and version.
Registry metadata is available under /api/registry/{packageName}. A scoped name
can be encoded as a single segment, such as @kuudo%2Famazon-ads, or sent in split
form as @kuudo/amazon-ads.
The metadata includes dist-tags, versions, and version-specific dist.tarball
and integrity information. Follow the returned tarball URL; do not construct or
guess filenames. Tarballs are served at
/api/registry/{packageName}/-/{filename} and use private, immutable caching for
one year. Metadata responses disable caching.
Invalid registry credentials return 401. Unknown and unentitled packages both return 404, preserving the organization’s catalog boundary. The registry exposes read metadata and artifacts; it is not an npm package publishing endpoint.
