        The object takes the form of:

    { # A skill.
      "compatibility": "A String", # Optional. Specifies the compatibility of the Skill. Indicates environment requirements (intended product, system packages, network access, etc.). This should align with `compatibility` in the `SKILL.md` file.
      "createTime": "A String", # Output only. Timestamp when this Skill was created.
      "description": "A String", # Required. Describes the Skill. Should describe both what the skill does and when to use it. Should include specific keywords that help agents identify relevant tasks. This should align with `description` in the `SKILL.md` file.
      "displayName": "A String", # Required. Provides the display name of the Skill. This should align with `name` in the `SKILL.md` file.
      "labels": { # The labels with user-defined metadata to organize Skills.
        "a_key": "A String",
      },
      "license": "A String", # Optional. Specifies the license of the Skill. This should be an SPDX license identifier (e.g., "MIT", "Apache-2.0"). See https://spdx.org/licenses/. This should align with `license` in the `SKILL.md` file.

      skillId: string, Required. The ID to use for the Skill, which will become the final component of the Skill's resource name. If not provided, a system-generated ID will be used.

The first character must be a lowercase letter, and the last character must be a lowercase letter or a number. Specifically, the ID must match the regular expression: `^[a-z]([a-z0-9-]{0,61}[a-z0-9])?$` See [AIP-122](https://aip.dev/122#resource-id-segments) for more details.

      "done": True or False, # If the value is `false`, it means the operation is still in progress. If `true`, the operation is completed, and either `error` or `response` is available.
      "error": { # The `Status` type defines a logical error model that is suitable for different programming environments, including REST APIs and RPC APIs. It is used by [gRPC](https://github.com/grpc). Each `Status` message contains three pieces of data: error code, error message, and error details.

      },
      "name": "A String", # The server-assigned name, which is only unique within the same service that originally returns it. If you use the default HTTP mapping, the `name` should be a resource name ending with `operations/{unique_id}`.
      "response": { # The normal, successful response of the operation. If the original method returns no data on success, such as `Delete`, the response is `google.protobuf.Empty`. If the original method is standard `Get`/`Create`/`Update`, the response should be the resource. For other methods, the response should have the type `XxxResponse`, where `Xxx` is the original method name. For example, if the original method name is `TakeSnapshot()`, the inferred response type is `TakeSnapshotResponse`.
