ov-resources

Load when an agent needs to add, manage, browse, search, modify, or remove resources in OpenViking. Trigger on explicit user requests about resource management or context search, when the user mentions `ov add-resource`, `ov task watch`, `ov export`, `ov import`, `ov backup`, `ov restore`, `ov ls`, `ov tree`, `ov read`, `ov write`, `ov mkdir`, `ov rm`, `ov mv`, `ov find`, `ov search`, `ov grep`, `ov glob`, or when an agent needs to inspect, search, or organize the `viking://resources/` namespace.

Markdown instructions
A SKILL.md file the model loads on demand, so it only costs tokens when a request actually matches.
Works with any LLM
AI skills are plain Markdown, not provider-specific code, so this works with GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model.
6 bundled files
Scripts, templates, and references the model can read while it works. Files are read-only and never executed.
Open source
Published by volcengine on GitHub. Read the source before you install it.

Installation

Install the Ov Resources AI skill in TypingMind to use it with any LLM, or drop it into another agent that reads SKILL.md.

Install in TypingMind

TypingMind installs a skill straight from its GitHub folder — it reads SKILL.md, bundles the resource files, and stores the result locally.

Open the app and go to Plugins → Skills.
Choose "Install from GitHub".
Paste the skill folder URL below and confirm.
Enable the skill in any chat where you want it available.

Plugins → Skills → Add skill → From GitHub URL, then paste the folder URL and press Continue.

Install in another agent

Any agent that reads the Agent Skills format can use this skill — copy the folder into that agent's skills directory.

Claude Code — .claude/skills

git clone --depth 1 https://github.com/volcengine/OpenViking.git /tmp/OpenViking
mkdir -p .claude/skills
cp -r /tmp/OpenViking/examples/skills/ov-resources .claude/skills/ov-resources

Restart Claude Code after copying so it picks up the new skill.

Use it in TypingMind

Enable Ov Resources in any TypingMind chat and the model takes it from there. Its name and description sit in the system prompt, and the moment a request matches, the model loads the full instructions itself — you never invoke it by hand, and it costs no tokens until it is actually used.

The model loads Ov Resources on its own as soon as a request matches it.

Works with any AI model

AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so Ov Resources is not tied to the model it was written for. Install it once in TypingMind and use it with GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama, or a local model you run yourself — all on your own API keys.

Loaded only when it is needed
The system prompt carries just the name and description. The instructions are fetched on the first matching request, so an idle skill costs nothing.
Switch models mid-chat
Because the skill is instructions rather than code, changing model does not break it — the next model reads the same SKILL.md.

Skill instructions

This is the SKILL.md content the model loads. Read it before installing — a skill is instructions your model will follow.

OpenViking (OV) Resource Management

The ov command group for resources covers adding external knowledge, filesystem operations, scheduled refresh (watch tasks), and ovpack import/export/backup/restore.

Goal

Guide an agent to correctly invoke resource and filesystem commands without guessing flags, URI semantics, or processing behavior.

Load When

User explicitly requests resource operations: ov add-resource, ov task watch, ov export, ov import, ov backup, ov restore.
User asks to browse, read, write, create, move, or delete files under viking://resources/.
User asks to search for context: ov find, ov search, ov grep, ov glob.
Agent needs to list, inspect, or search the resource tree to find context.

Inputs

Name	Required	Description
`subcommand`	yes	Resource command: `add-resource`, `task watch`, `export`, `import`, `backup`, `restore`, filesystem command: `ls`, `tree`, `read`, `write`, `mkdir`, `rm`, `mv`, `grep`, `glob`, or search command: `find`, `search`
`target`	conditional	File path, URL, Viking URI, or query string
`flags`	no	Command-specific flags like `--wait`, `--to`, `--parent`, `--recursive`, `--watch-interval`

Workflow

Identify the user's intent and map to the correct ov <subcommand>.
Resolve the target (local path, URL, or Viking URI).
Construct the command with appropriate flags.
Execute and report results.

Permissions

ov add-resource from external URLs may download untrusted content; verify the source when the user provides an untrusted URL.
ov rm --recursive is destructive; confirm with the user before executing on large directories.
ov export, ov import, ov backup, ov restore require ROOT or ADMIN permissions.
ov write replaces file content in-place; the old version is not retained.

Output

CLI output returned directly to the user.
Errors surfaced with suggested fixes and relevant flag guidance.

Verification

After add-resource, ov ls or ov tree should show the new resource under the expected URI.
After rm, ov ls should no longer list the removed path.
After write, ov read should reflect the new content.
After ov import or ov restore, ov tree should show the imported structure.

Boundaries

Do not invent paths or URLs. Use what the user provides.
Do not execute ov rm --recursive on broad paths like viking://resources/ without explicit user confirmation.
Do not treat ov add-skill or ov skills as equivalent to resource commands; skill management is handled by ov-skills.
Do not treat ov add-memory as a resource command; memory management is out of scope for this skill.

Runtime Resources

docs/add-resource.md — detailed resource ingestion docs, source types, and async processing.
docs/filesystem.md — filesystem operations reference (ls, tree, read, write, mkdir, rm, mv, grep, glob).
docs/search.md — semantic search (ov find, ov search) and search combination strategies.
docs/watch-management.md — watch task lifecycle (create, pause, resume, trigger, update, remove).
docs/ovpack.md — ovpack export/import/backup/restore reference.
examples/commands.md — common command patterns by scenario.

Bundled files

The model reads these on demand while the skill is loaded. They are exposed as readable files and are never executed.

Frequently asked questions

What does the Ov Resources AI skill do?

Why use Ov Resources on TypingMind?

Because you install it once and use it with any model. Ov Resources is plain Markdown rather than provider-specific code, so the same skill runs on GPT-5, Claude, Gemini, Grok, or a local model — and you can switch model mid-chat without it breaking. TypingMind runs on your own API keys, so you pay providers directly instead of a per-seat subscription, and your skills and chats stay in your own storage.

How do I install Ov Resources in TypingMind?

Open Plugins → Skills → Install from GitHub in TypingMind and paste https://github.com/volcengine/OpenViking/tree/main/examples/skills/ov-resources. TypingMind reads its SKILL.md and bundles its files and installs it as a skill you can enable per chat.

Which AI models can use Ov Resources?

Any model you connect in TypingMind. AI skills are plain Markdown instructions rather than provider-specific code, so GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, and local models can all load this skill when a request matches it.

How many AI models can I use with Ov Resources?

As many as you like. As long as a model supports skills, you can use Ov Resources with it — GPT, Claude, Gemini, Grok, DeepSeek, Mistral, Llama and more — all on TypingMind with your own API keys.

Is the Ov Resources AI skill free?

Yes. It is published on GitHub by volcengine under the AGPL-3.0 license. You only pay your own AI provider for the tokens you use.

What are AI skills?

An AI skill is a reusable instruction bundle that teaches an AI model how to do one specific task. It follows the open Agent Skills format: a SKILL.md file with a name and description, plus any scripts, templates or reference files the model may need. The model reads the instructions only when your request matches the skill, so an installed skill costs nothing until it is used.

How are AI skills different from plugins or MCP servers?

A plugin or MCP server gives a model new tools to call — code that runs somewhere and returns a result. An AI skill gives the model knowledge and process instead: how to approach a task, which steps to follow, what good output looks like. Skills are plain Markdown, so they need no server, no API key and no runtime, and they work with any model.
