Individual skill

capability-broker

Turns a capability gap into a gated acquisition: when no skill, CLI, MCP, or account covers a need, offers (never auto-acts) to research and provision a tool, or scaffold a skill. Trigger: "the bridge can't do that", "there's no skill for this", "build a skill for this", "capability gap", "self-extend".

# Capability Broker

The **acquisition** arm of the Bridge learning loop. The other arms look
backward and refine what exists (`task-close-postmortem`, `bridge-audit`,
`bridge-curator`); this one looks forward and **gains a new capability** — a
tool or a skill — when the user hits something the Bridge can't do yet.

It **proposes, it never auto-acts.** Every install, every outward step, every
persistent write is propose-then-confirm. Same human-gate-at-every-layer posture
as `rules/learning-autonomy.md` — this skill is bound by that rule, not an
exception to it.

Read this file only when triggered. Full procedures live in `references/`
(progressive disclosure) — load the one you need, not all four.
