Install
Works with every agent the skills CLI supports.
npx skills add https://github.com/volcengine/openviking --skill adding-resource- 01
Install
Run the command in your project. The CLI asks which agents to install for.
- 02
Describe the task
Ask your agent for something this skill covers. It loads adding-resource automatically when relevant.
- 03
Review the result
The agent follows the SKILL.md steps, scripts and references bundled with the skill.

The instructions your agent reads when the skill is triggered.
OpenViking (OV) add-resource
The ov add-resource command imports external resources into OpenViking's context database — supporting local files, directories, URLs, and remote repositories. Resources are automatically processed with semantic analysis and organized under the viking://resources/ namespace.
When to Use
- Importing project documentation, code repositories, or reference materials
- Adding web pages, articles, or online resources for future retrieval
- Building a knowledge base from external sources
- When an agent encounters valuable content that should persist across sessions
Input Options
Basic Usage
Import a local file or URL:
# Import from URL
ov add-resource https://raw.githubusercontent.com/volcengine/OpenViking/main/README.md
# Import local file
ov add-resource ./docs/api-spec.md
# Import local directory
ov add-resource ./project-source
Context and Instructions
Add metadata to guide processing:
# Provide reason for import
ov add-resource ./api-docs.md --reason "REST API documentation for v2 endpoints"
# Add processing instructions
ov add-resource ./large-repo --instruction "Focus on authentication and authorization patterns"
# Combine reason and instruction
ov add-resource https://example.com/guide --reason "User guide" --instruction "Extract best practices and examples"
Async Processing Control
Wait for semantic processing to complete:
# Wait until processing finishes
ov add-resource ./docs --wait
# Wait with timeout (in seconds)
ov add-resource https://example.com/docs --wait --timeout 60
# Fire and forget (default)
ov add-resource ./docs
Output
Returns the root URI of the imported resource:
root_uri viking://resources/...
Prerequisites
- CLI configured:
~/.openviking/ovcli.conf - Network access for URL imports
- Read permissions for local files/directories

ov-experience-memory
volcengine/openviking
Retrieve and apply OpenViking Experience memories through the Agent runtime's generic OpenViking search and read tools. Use before or during executable, multi-step, or tool-based work such as coding, file or data changes, configuration, deployment, workflow execution, and failure recovery when prior operational guidance could improve reliability. Do not use for casual chat or simple factual questions.
openviking-memory
volcengine/openviking
Recall and persist long-term memory through the OpenViking MCP tools. Use at the start of any substantive task (coding, configuration, debugging, multi-step or tool-based work) to retrieve relevant prior knowledge with find/search/read, and during or after work to persist durable facts, preferences, decisions, and lessons with remember. Do not use for casual chat or simple factual questions the model can answer directly.
