+Two steps: find the gem, then run the resolver that lives inside it.
 
-Run the resolver that sits next to this file. One command does the whole job: it finds `Gemfile.lock`, resolves each Avo gem on disk, proves each resolved gem is the version the lock names, and prints the index of skills available to this app.

+That usually works. When it does not, the failure is misleading in ways worth knowing:
+
+- It exits non-zero when the app's Ruby differs from the one you are running, and **the message talks about Ruby, not about avo**. `bundle info avo --path` fails the same way and prints its error to stdout, so capturing that output hands you an English sentence instead of a path.
+- `gem which avo` is the usual fallback, but it can return a gem from a **different version than this app locked**, at exit 0. Treat its answer as a candidate, not an answer.
+
+If `bundle show` fails, try these in order:
+
+```bash
+gem which avo | sed 's|/lib/avo\.rb$||'
+ls -d "$(gem env gemdir)"/gems/avo-*
+```
+
+Whatever you end up with, step 2 verifies it. If you cannot find the gem at all, say so and stop.
+
+## 2. Run the resolver inside the gem
+
+```bash
+bash <GEM_PATH>/lib/avo/skills/bin/avo-skills-resolve
+```
+
+This is the part that must not be improvised. It reads `Gemfile.lock`, resolves every Avo gem in the bundle, **proves each one is the version the lock names**, and prints the index of skills available to this app. It also catches the case where step 1 handed you the wrong gem.

-- Re-run `rails g avo:skills` after upgrading Avo to refresh this loader — the resolver warns when its own copy is older than the gem.
