ok that’s the issue. skills folder is owned by root. Therefore mycroft is not able to write data on it. pls do

```nohighlight
systemctl stop mycroft.service
chown mycroft:mycroft /mnt/dietpi_userdata/mycroft-data/skills/
systemctl start mycroft.service
mycroft-cli-client

```

Now you should see skills to be installed.
