Kilo Code is an open-source AI coding agent for VS Code that brings together planning, multi-file edits, command execution, and MCP support (it builds on ideas from Cline and Roo Code). It reads project instructions from a .kilocode/rules/ directory — which is where a SKILL.md's guidance lives once adapted.
SKILL.md into .kilocode/rules/<slug>.md at your project root (confirm the current rules path in the Kilo Code docs).Kilo Code consumes plain-markdown rules, not SKILL.md frontmatter — so a skill's body ports directly while the YAML header is ignored. A few patterns to watch:
allowed-tools: and other agent-specific frontmatter keys are ignored — Kilo Code has its own tool set and runs shell commands natively.scripts/ work, because Kilo Code can execute commands in your workspace.~/.claude/skills/. It reads markdown rules from .kilocode/rules/, so you adapt a SKILL.md into that folder. The body ports directly; the frontmatter is ignored.
.kilocode/rules/ directory at the workspace root (confirm the current path in the Kilo Code docs). The format follows the same markdown-rules pattern as Cline and Roo Code.
