PR #586 gives Aiden a dedicated installation path for remote AI agent skills. Supported HTTP(S), GitHub tree, or GitHub blob Skill URLs now route to a single skill_manage install call — staging, validation, and atomic publication — replacing what used to be an improvised sequence of web scraper, shell/curl, and manual file assembly calls.

Real-agent reproduction testing confirmed the full trace drops to one purpose-built call. Returns concrete metadata on file writes, changes, and integrity results, with clearer mismatch details on patch conflicts. Scope is explicit: merged into the open-source firmware repo, not automatically deployed device-wide; only supported URL formats and validated files install.
