This module: * Loads data via Module:GameData → <code>GameData.loadSkills()</code>. * Looks up skills by their <code>"Internal Name"</code> (fast) or by display <code>"Name"</co..."

* <code>"Name"</code> – the display name (what players and editors will usually see and use).
* <code>"Internal Name"</code> – the stable ID used internally and available as an optional parameter for power users and tooling.

It accepts the following parameters (either passed directly or via a wrapper template):


* <code>id</code> – <code>"Internal Name"</code> of the skill (preferred).
* <code>1</code> – unnamed parameter; treated as the skill <code>"Name"</code>.
