What it does
This is a deprecated compatibility stub. It does not teach the agent anything new on its own; it tells the agent to load the successor skill, agent-operated-software, which holds the maintained guidance. It exists so older OpenRig instructions that reference the former name keep working for one release before it is removed in version 0.6.0.
Great for
- Users of older OpenRig instructions that still reference software-for-agents
- Maintainers tracking the rename and retirement schedule
Skip it if
- Anyone looking for new guidance: the useful content lives in agent-operated-software, not this file
- Installing it as a standalone capability, since it only points elsewhere and will be removed in 0.6.0
Try asking
- “Load software-for-agents to find the current agent-operated-software guidance”
- “Follow an older OpenRig doc that names software-for-agents and get redirected”
