## What it does

This skill searches the AgentExplorer catalog for official Alibaba Cloud agent skills. It can match a task description or keywords, list categories and subcategories, and show details for a named skill. When asked to install a selected skill, it provides installation guidance.

Discovery uses `curl` with the AgentExplorer HTTP API. Requests require dedicated headers and connection time limits; Windows uses a PowerShell command shape. Search, category browsing, and skill details do not use Aliyun CLI, so an existing CLI setup does not affect those actions.

Before searching, the skill breaks a request into intent units such as the cloud product or required task. It searches meaningful parts of a compound request independently. That matters when a request covers more than one Alibaba Cloud service.
