  Packaged agent skills for the three Canonical API surfaces an agent is most likely to be asked to
  operate: LXD (infrastructure provisioning), snapd (package lifecycle on a host), and the Ubuntu
  Security API (CVE and USN lookup). Canonical publishes no skills of its own and no AGENTS.md was
  found in the canonical GitHub organization, so these are generated, not harvested.
skills:
  - name: canonical-lxd-provision-instance
    file: canonical-lxd-provision-instance.md
    api: canonical:lxd-rest-api
    spec: openapi/canonical-lxd-rest-api-openapi.yml
    operations: 12
    covers:
      - capability discovery via api_extensions
      - project scoping
      - asynchronous operation model and the operation status codes
      - ETag/If-Match conditional updates
      - snapshot-before-change and the restore path
      - cancelling an in-flight operation
    risk: high — creates, mutates and destroys infrastructure
  - name: canonical-snapd-manage-snap
    file: canonical-snapd-manage-snap.md
    api: canonical:snapd-rest-api
    spec: openapi/canonical-snapd-rest-api-openapi.yml
    operations: 9
    covers:
      - unix socket peer authentication
      - the change model and how to abort a change
      - revert to a previous revision, bounded by refresh.retain
      - the 31-day automatic snapshot window on removal, and how purge destroys it
      - branching on the enumerated error `kind`
    risk: high — installs, removes and reverts software on a host
  - name: canonical-ubuntu-security-cve-lookup
    file: canonical-ubuntu-security-cve-lookup.md
    api: canonical:ubuntu-security-api
    spec: openapi/canonical-ubuntu-security-api-openapi.json
    operations: 6
    covers:
      - open unauthenticated access
      - CVE and USN lookup and search
      - release support status as the precondition for reading "fixed"
      - the deliberately flattened notices payloads and the compat paths
      - the 60-second cache-control floor in place of a rate limit
    risk: low — read-only, unauthenticated
