Integration of Open API Builder into the agent builder

Currently, there are plans to introduce an open API builder in Watson Orchestrate for creating and designing open APIs or skills tools. In addition to that I propose the integration of the OpenAPI builder into the skill catalog.

This addition, alongside the existing features like skill tool edit, enhance, and export, could include an "Edit Open API or Source Code" feature. This enhancement aims to allow developers to efficiently edit and publish without the need to delete the skill and re-import, thereby saving time and boosting developer productivity.

    No longer under consideration, as part of our copilot experience we may enable the LLM to help write an OpenAPI and incorporate as a tool.

    We do plan to include a procode experience as part of viewing APIs in the future as we redesign the experience of building skills in Orchestrate, and incorporate the openapi builder into it!
