Research direction

No files or tests are named. Start by reviewing the current global skill-loading behavior and the closed PR #191, then determine how platform-specific skills could be selected on demand; done requires an agreed design for scoping these skills without exposing them to all Flutter developers.

Written by the indexing model from the issue text.

Description

Problem

Loading specialized skills like the iOS specific plugin migration (#191) globally exposes them to all Flutter developers, regardless of whether they are working on iOS-specific tasks. That's why this PR was closed (PR feedback)

Proposed Solution

Explore scoping niche or platform-specific skills that users can select on demand.
• Reduces Noise: Prevents cluttering the core agent's context for general Flutter workflows.
• Better Targeting: Ensures specialized tools are only loaded when explicitly needed for platform-specific tasks.

Alternatives

Host this skill under a personal repo, or as a GitHub comment.

We plan to reach out to popular plugin authors with this skill included for AI assisted migration. Putting it under a personal account feels a bit sussy. GitHub comment can be hard to manage compared to a centralized repo.
