+### Private Repositories
+
+Use the same command for public and private repositories. The CLI uses the authentication already configured for the repository URL:
+
+```bash
+# GitHub shorthand or HTTPS (Git credential helper, GitHub CLI, then SSH fallback)
+npx skills add acme/private-skills
+
+# SSH on GitHub, GitLab, or another Git host
+npx skills add git@github.com:acme/private-skills.git
+npx skills add ssh://git@git.example.com/acme/private-skills.git
+
+# HTTPS on any Git host (uses your configured Git credential helper)
+npx skills add https://git.example.com/acme/private-skills.git
+```
+
+For GitHub HTTPS and shorthand sources, `skills` first uses normal Git credentials. If that fails and GitHub CLI is authenticated, it tries `gh repo clone`, followed by SSH. It does not execute `gh auth token` or copy the stored GitHub CLI credential into the Node.js process.
+
+For GitHub tree lookups, `skills` first tries the API anonymously, then an explicitly supplied environment token, then `gh api`. GitHub CLI applies its own stored authentication and returns only the API response; the credential is never printed to or read by `skills`. If API access still fails, update checks fall back to an authenticated Git clone.
+
+`GITHUB_TOKEN` or `GH_TOKEN` can be set explicitly for GitHub API access, including private repository downloads and update checks. They are optional for installs when Git, GitHub CLI, or SSH authentication is already configured.

 ### Skill Discovery
 
 The CLI searches for skills in these locations within a repository. Each
-skill container directory is walked one level deep for the common flat
-layout (`skills/<name>/SKILL.md`) and one extra level deep for catalog
-layouts (`skills/<category>/<name>/SKILL.md`). A `SKILL.md` discovered at
-the shallower level shadows anything nested below it. Use `--full-depth`
-to also discover `SKILL.md` files outside these container directories
-(e.g. under `examples/` or `tests/`).

-Telemetry is automatically disabled in CI environments.
+GitHub repository and skill identifiers are sent only for repositories that GitHub positively confirms are public. Other remote source types may include source and skill identifiers in install telemetry because their visibility cannot be checked through GitHub. Security-audit requests remain limited to confirmed-public GitHub repositories. Set `DISABLE_TELEMETRY=1` or `DO_NOT_TRACK=1` to disable both entirely.
