Why we included this project

Agent Skills is a lightweight, open folder format for packaging the procedural knowledge and context that AI agents need to do real work. If you build or operate agentic systems, the spec is worth reading because it standardizes both how a skill is structured (a SKILL.md file with metadata and instructions, plus optional scripts, references, and assets) and how agents load those skills through progressive disclosure. A skill written once can then be reused across any compatible agent, so teams don't have to rebuild the same capabilities for each tool. The repo also includes implementation guidance for adding skills support to your own agent or development tool, which makes it work as both a reference standard and a practical integration manual. It's documentation rather than runnable software, but for anyone standardizing agent workflows it's a useful common ground.
