Dalo documentation

Start with Dalo through your agent, the recommended way to install Dalo and manage your skills. Your agent handles commands and reports while Dalo enforces its approval, audit, and ownership checks. For commands, use the getting started walkthrough. The agent installation guide lives at install.md, the release history in the changelog.

Start here

Install and manage Dalo through your agent, or follow the command-line walkthrough.

• Dalo assistant Recommended: manage skills through your agent, backed by Dalo's approval, audit, and ownership checks.
• Getting started The command-line walkthrough: pick your starting point, connect an agent, and sync skills.
• Project installations Pin skills per repository so every clone restores the same set, and migrate a skills.sh project.
• Team repository Publish a team source: pin external catalogs, advance a pin, and onboard a teammate.

• Troubleshooting Resolver, doctor, and security findings with the command that clears each one, plus the FAQ.
• Dalo in CI Run a reproducible, non-interactive sync in a pipeline.
