I downloaded the agent skill "Code Review" as code-review.zip. Unzip it and copy the code-review folder into ~/.kiro/skills. Before you finish, list every file it contains, show me any scripts and what they do, and stop if anything asks for passwords, API keys or downloads from other websites.
Example with Code Review, the first pick above. Each skill page has its own prompt and download.
