Summary

What changed

mistral.rs added OpenAI-compatible Agent Skills support via /v1/skills and easier prebuilt binary installation paths.

Why it matters

Agent Skills are becoming a portability layer across coding and agent tools. Adding /v1/skills to a local inference runtime makes skills usable outside hosted agents, supporting private or local deployments that still want structured agent capabilities.
