Builds a portable, embedding-free knowledgebase from a set of files and delivers it as a self-contained `.skill` bundle (BM25 index + bundled searcher + query protocol). Use when a user wants to turn uploaded files, a folder, or a corpus into a searchable knowledgebase they can hand to any agent — phrased as "make a knowledgebase", "build a KB skill", "package these docs for retrieval", "create a searchable bundle", or references to a `.skill` KB. The output runs anywhere with Node or Python — no model, no install, no network. Distinct from `bm25` (ephemeral in-session search) and `building-github-index` (markdown project-knowledge index).

The skill is a tool for building portable, local knowledge bases from your files. It indexes your documents into a self-contained bundle for search and retrieval. The code is safe and operates entirely on your local machine. However, like any retrieval system, it creates a surface for indirect prompt injection if the documents you index contain malicious instructions meant to override the AI agent's behavior.
