Skillware's a Python framework for building reliable AI agents by packaging logic, cognition, and governance into modular skills — ditching flaky prompts for code you control.

How do I get started with Skillware?

pip install skillware, init a workspace, install skills or build your own via BaseSkill. GitHub repo has examples.

Is Skillware ready for enterprise use?

Yes, with private registries for proprietary skills, verifiable execution, and governance — keeps your SOPs locked down.

Will Skillware replace frameworks like LangChain?

Not fully, but it fixes their biggest flaw: hallucinations from prompt overload, by making agents logic-first.
