| On the .NET 10 SDK or later, `dnx` runs [`skillz`](https://www.nuget.org/packages/skillz), which is like `skills` but natively a .NET tool, no Node.js required. |

| Use this path when you already have the .NET SDK and prefer not to depend on Node.js. |

What
On the Aspire skills page, the Other installation options section already lists install methods as tabs (Copilot CLI, Claude Code, Codex CLI, OpenCode, skills.sh). This adds one more sibling tab, .NET (dnx):
Why
We built
skillzto give .NET a native way to install agent skills: with the .NET 10 SDK,dnx skillz add ...runs the installer directly from NuGet, so the whole workflow stays in the .NET toolchain instead of requiring Node.js and the VercelskillsCLI.i know aspire is not just .NET but probably a big chunk of the audience already has .net 10 installed.
skillzis completely open source and ships with no telemetry, so it's a transparent, dependency-light alternative for anyone who'd rather not pull in the Node toolchain.
