Moves the registry/cache pieces of PR #5867 under crewai.experimental.skills
and the CLI commands under `crewai experimental skill`. The stable local-file
skills feature (loader, parser, validation, models) stays in crewai.skills.
Both entry points now require CREWAI_EXPERIMENTAL=1:
- resolve_registry_ref() calls require_experimental_skills() before resolving
- The `crewai experimental` CLI group raises UsageError when the flag is unset
SkillDownloadStarted/CompletedEvent move out of crewai.events.types.skill_events
into crewai.experimental.skills.events.
* refactor(skills): move 'version' off SkillFrontmatter into metadata
The skill version is now stored as `metadata.version` rather than a
top-level field on `SkillFrontmatter`. A `before` validator lifts any
top-level YAML `version:` into `metadata['version']` so existing SKILL.md
files keep parsing.
* feat: enhance StdioTransport to prevent environment variable leakage
- Replaced os.environ.copy() with get_default_environment() to ensure only allowed environment variables are passed to the MCP server.
- Added tests to verify that ambient environment variables do not leak and that user-supplied environment variables can override defaults.
* feat: add environment variable filtering hook to StdioTransport
- Introduced an optional `_env_filter_hook` to allow extensions to modify the environment variables passed to MCP servers, enabling features like credential stripping.
- Updated tests to ensure the filtering hook is applied correctly after merging user-supplied and default environment variables.
* Fix structured output leaks in tool-calling loops
* addressing comments
* drop scripts
* Update Gemini agent tests to include structured output with thoughts and bump model version to 2.5-flash
* merge
* Update Anthropic test cases to use new model and tool structure
- Changed the model from "claude-3-5-haiku-20241022" to "claude-sonnet-4-6" in the test setup.
- Updated the request and response formats in the YAML test cassette to reflect the new tool structure and improved content formatting.
- Adjusted the expected response body to match the new output format from the assistant, including changes in tool usage and response details.
- Increased rate limit values in the response headers for better testing scenarios.

* Update VCR configuration to use 'host' instead of 'bedrock_host' for request matching
* feat(planning): enhance planning configuration and observation handling
- Introduced attribute in to control LLM calls after each step.
- Updated to set default to 1 when planning is enabled without explicit config.
- Modified to support heuristic observations when LLM calls are disabled.
- Adjusted to respect and settings for step observations.
- Added tests to verify behavior of new configurations and ensure correct observation handling across different reasoning efforts.
* fix(agent_executor): update handling of failed steps in low effort mode
- Adjusted logic to ensure that failed steps are recorded without marking them as completed when using low reasoning effort.
- Introduced feedback for failed steps, allowing the process to continue while tracking failures.
- Added a test to verify that failed steps are correctly marked without triggering a replan.

Every agent kickoff calls _use_trained_data, which calls
CrewTrainingHandler(...).load(). Since #4827 wrapped load() in store_lock,
that means every kickoff acquires the cross-process (Redis-backed when
REDIS_URL is set) lock even on deployments that never train and have no
trained-agents file on disk.
Move the missing/empty-file short-circuit above store_lock so the lock is
only acquired when there is actually a file to read. save() and the real
read remain locked.
- callable_to_string returns None for lambdas/closures instead of an
unresolvable dotted path; Crew filters Nones out of restored callback
lists.
- EventNode.event serializer honors info.mode so mode='json' calls cascade
properly into nested event payloads.
- RagTool.adapter serializes to None (post-validator rebuilds from
config); concrete adapters hold runtime state that can't be round-tripped.
Move scope restoration from Crew-level global push to a per-task push
inside Task via resume_task_scope() in event_context. Fixes orphan
task_started warning, hierarchical resume (manager_agent now eligible
for _resuming), and parallel async resume (each contextvars copy owns
its own scope). Tests added.
llm and prompt were declared required with exclude=True, making the
model un-restorable from its own serialized output. Mirror the
CrewAgentExecutor pattern: make them nullable with default None, keep
exclude=True, and re-attach llm on the resume path alongside the other
re-attached fields. Guard the two prompt-deref sites so the runtime
invariant survives the looser type.
* feat(tools): declare env_vars on DatabricksQueryTool
Add EnvVar import and env_vars field to DatabricksQueryTool so the host
UI knows which environment variables the tool requires. Both auth paths
(DATABRICKS_HOST+TOKEN or DATABRICKS_CONFIG_PROFILE) are marked
required=False with descriptions explaining the alternative.

* fix(tools): correct mongdb typo to pymongo in package_dependencies
The `package_dependencies` field in `MongoDBVectorSearchTool` referenced
the non-existent package `mongdb` instead of the actual PyPI package
`pymongo`, which is the driver imported and used throughout the file.

* feat: add Skills Repository — registry, cache, CLI, and SDK integration
Adds a Skills Repository feature allowing users to publish, install,
and use skills from the CrewAI registry with @org/skill-name refs.
## What's New
### SDK (lib/crewai/)
- SkillFrontmatter: added optional 'version' field (backward compatible)
- SkillCacheManager: manages ~/.crewai/skills/{org}/{name}/ with
.crewai_meta.json tracking, path-traversal-safe tar extraction
- SkillRegistry: parse @org/skill-name refs, local-first resolution
(./skills/ > cache > download), interactive prompt on first use,
CI-mode guard (CREWAI_NONINTERACTIVE/CI env vars)
- Agent.skills and Crew.skills widened to accept str refs (@org/name)
- set_skills() resolves registry refs with org-prefixed dedup keys
- New events: SkillDownloadStartedEvent, SkillDownloadCompletedEvent
### CLI (lib/cli/)
- crewai skill create <name> — context-aware (project vs standalone)
- crewai skill install @org/name — downloads to ./skills/ or cache
- crewai skill publish — ZIP + upload to org registry
- crewai skill list — show installed skills
### PlusAPI (lib/crewai-core/)
- Added SKILLS_RESOURCE, get_skill(), publish_skill(), list_skills()
### Scaffolding
- crew and flow templates now include skills/ directory
### Tests
- 91 SDK skill tests + 15 CLI skill tests, all passing
* fix: address all CI failures and CodeRabbit review comments
Lint:
- Remove unused imports (click, pytest, json)
- Replace try-except-pass with logging (S110)
- Fix unprotected zipfile.extractall (S202)
Security:
- Path traversal: startswith → is_relative_to for tar extraction
- Add path traversal protection to ZIP extraction via _safe_extract_zip
- Both cache.py and CLI main.py hardened
Type checker:
- Fix import path: crewai.events.event_bus (not crewai_event_bus)
- Remove unused type: ignore comments
- Fix type mismatches in set_skills() variable types
Code quality:
- Fix f-string interpolation in SkillNotCachedError
- Use ValidationError instead of Exception in test
* style: ruff format + autofix remaining lint errors
* refactor: reuse SDK parser and SkillCacheManager in CLI
- _parse_frontmatter() now delegates to crewai.skills.parser.parse_frontmatter
when available, with a minimal fallback for CLI-only installs
- install() global cache path now reuses SkillCacheManager.store() instead
of duplicating metadata writing logic
* refactor: add _print_current_organization to SkillCommand (matches ToolCommand pattern)
* fix: write .crewai_meta.json in fallback install path
CodeRabbit caught that the ImportError fallback in install() didn't write
cache metadata, making skills invisible to 'crewai skill list'.
* fix: tighten @org/name ref validation to prevent path traversal
Reject refs with multiple slashes (@org/a/b), dot segments (@../skill),
or leading dots in org/name. Applied to both CLI install() and SDK
parse_registry_ref() so the contract is enforced consistently.
* fix: update test assertions to match tightened error messages
* fix: align OSS client with AMP API contract
- download_skill(): fetch download_url (presigned URL) instead of
expecting inline base64. Falls back to 'file' field for compat.
- Read 'latest_version' field, fall back to 'version'
- Same fixes applied to CLI install() command
* fix: publish as tar.gz (matches AMP content_type validation) + add zip fallback to SDK cache
CLI publish:
- _build_skill_zip → _build_skill_tarball (tar.gz format)
- Content type: application/x-gzip (matches SkillVersion validation)
SDK cache:
- store() now tries tar.gz first, falls back to zip extraction
- Added _safe_extract_zip for path-traversal-safe zip handling
- Both formats work for download/install regardless of server format

Adds typed containers for wire payloads, literal aliases for HTTP method
and log type, and Ffnal markers on resource constants. Updates
upstream returns in project_utils.py and deploy/main.py to match
the new contracts.
In `_execute_task_with_a2a` and its async variant, the try body
sets `task.output_pydantic = None` before returning an A2A
response. The finally block then checks
`if task.output_pydantic is not None` before restoring the
original value — but since it was just set to None, the condition
is always False and the original value is never restored. This
permanently mutates the Task object.
Remove the guard so `output_pydantic` is unconditionally restored,
matching the unconditional restoration of `description` and
`response_model` in the same block.
