Trying to replace skill verbs

Ok what I am trying to do is make my skills into objects and then have a proc call them when a player clicks them or hits the assigned hot key button in this case it will be 1-9 with the player able to chose where they drag the assigned skill card after they obtain it from a skill tree so back to my original question how do I convert my old verb style skill system into one where a player has to either click the skill or hit the macro 1-9 below is a copy of my old skill verb

mob
    skill
        verb/Spirit_Gun()
            set category = "Specil Techs"
            if(safe) return
            if(se < 10)
                src << "<b>Not enough enegry!"
                return
            if(!firing)
                view(8) << "<b>[src]: Rei Gun"
                firing = 1

                se -= 10
                var/obj/K = new/obj/Eatk(loc)

                K.Gowner = src
                K.dir = dir
                walk(K, dir)

Someone correct me if im wrong.
As for having a hotkey bar all you really need to do is hotkey 1 as Hotkey-Box-1 then have a proc to make Hotkey-Box-1 toggle the mvoe you dragged into it.
And
This should work for clicking the object:
mob/skill/verb
    Spirit_Gun()
        set category = "Specil Techs"
        if(safe) return
        if(se < 10)
            src << "<b>Not enough enegry!"
            return
        if(!firing)
            view(8) << "<b>[src]: Rei Gun"
            firing = 1
            
            se -= 10
            var/obj/K = new/obj/Eatk(loc)
            
            K.Gowner = src
            K.dir = dir
            walk(K, dir)
            
obj/SkillButtons
    ReiGunButton
        icon='Skills.dmi'
        icon_state="Rei Gun"
        Click()
            Spirit_Gun()

You probably should have spell checked it.

By default, not adding a "prefix" would make the game assume that the source is doing the verb. But in this case, the src is an obj, and you want the person clicking to do the verb.

EDIT: Also, I wanted to note that unless you put
set hidden = 1

Anyone will be able to see and use the verb.
