 `skiss compile model.skiss` writes a LinkML schema instead, as YAML on standard output. `--json` writes the same schema as JSON, `--name` sets the schema name (it defaults to the file name without its extension, and to `sketch` when reading standard input), and `-o`, `-`, `--strict` and the diagnostics work exactly as they do for `diagram`.

+`skiss import schema.linkml.yaml` goes the other way: it reads a LinkML schema, YAML or JSON, and writes Skiss. What the projection could not carry — `is_a`, patterns, `required`, the names it had to convert — is one line on standard error before the diagnostics, because a sketch is a smaller language than LinkML and that line says by how much. `-o`, `-` and the diagnostics work as they do for `compile`; `--strict` exits 1 when the projected sketch has a diagnostic, and also when anything was dropped.
