Uses the third-party skills CLI, not an ASE-owned installer. Check your agent’s compatibility. This copies instructions; complete the upstream tool setup below separately.
At a glance
Tools required
Python environment, nox, and a repository with a versioned noxfile defining the intended automation sessions
Install & setup
Install nox from the upstream Python package, add or review a noxfile.py with named sessions for the repository workflow, then run the desired session locally or in CI through the documented nox commands.

Quick brief
Use nox when an agent needs a repository-native way to define and run repeatable Python automation sessions such as tests, lint, docs, or build steps across controlled environments. Invoke this instead of using ad hoc shell commands normally when the job is specifically to execute named automation sessions from a versioned noxfile, not to browse a generic task runner. The scope boundary is concrete: declare sessions in Python, provision their environments, and run the same coded workflow on demand, which is narrow enough to be a reusable skill rather than a plain CLI listing.
