3Amolith's collection of Agent Skills—markdown-based documentation that extends AI agent capabilities through a standardized format.

5## Repository Structure
6
7Each top-level directory is a skill. A skill's directory name **must match** its `name` frontmatter field.

10skill-name/
11├── SKILL.md # Required: YAML frontmatter + markdown instructions
12├── references/ # Optional: additional documentation loaded on-demand
13├── scripts/ # Optional: executable code
14└── assets/ # Optional: templates, resources

17## Creating/Editing Skills
18
19The `authoring-skills/` directory has the necessary info for, well, authoring skills.

21## Design Principles
22
231. Progressive disclosure: Frontmatter loads at startup; SKILL.md body loads on activation; references/ load on-demand
242. Conciseness over completeness: Every token competes for context window space
253. Appropriate freedom: Match instruction specificity to task fragility (see `authoring-skills/references/patterns.md`)
