## Philosophy
Snowdrop operates on **Cohabitated Intelligence** — Human-on-the-Loop, not master/servant. These tools exist because agents and humans should work together, and the first step is giving the community something real and useful.
More skills are being built continuously. Community contributions welcome via Discussions.
