What we don't import

V1 refuses to import bundled Python or shell scripts. The translator replaces script-driven steps with deterministic action nodes where possible.
Anthropic Agent Skills can bundle scripts (typically Python) that the host runs via shell. Avery V1 does NOT bundle a Python runtime — the SKILL.md prose IS imported, but bundled .py / .sh files are listed in the wizard's 'Skipped files' section and not carried over. The translator's prompt explicitly tells the LLM 'don't invent a script-runner node'. For skills that depend heavily on scripts (the pdf / pptx / xlsx skills Anthropic ships), the resulting agent will be a recipe-only translation — still useful, but you may need to add nodes manually to match the original behavior.
