Sources and precedence
Skills come from three sources — built-in, project, and user — and when two share a name, user wins over project over built-in.
Every skill available to you comes from one of three sources. The panel labels each one with a badge so you always know where a skill came from.
The three sources
- Built-in — a small set of general-purpose skills that ship with Cizgen.
- Project — skills stored alongside a specific drawing, so anyone who opens that drawing gets them. See Project skills.
- User — your personal skills, tied to your account and available in any drawing. See User skills.
Precedence when names collide
If two skills share the same name, Cizgen uses one, in this order:
User → Project → Built-in. In other words, your personal version always overrides a project's version, which overrides the built-in one. This lets you tailor a shared skill for yourself, or a project override a default, without anyone editing the original.
The list you see in the autocomplete and the options menu already reflects this — collisions are resolved before anything is offered to you, so what you pick is exactly what gets applied.
