# Agent Skills Repository

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

## Repository Structure

Each directory under `skills/` is a skill. A skill's directory name **must match** its `name` frontmatter field.

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

## Creating/Editing Skills

The `skills/authoring-skills/` directory has the necessary info for, well, authoring skills.

## Naming Convention

Two categories of skills exist:

- **Generic capability skills** (`formatting-commits`): Use specific tools to accomplish general tasks. Tool name omitted from skill name.
- **Service workflow skills** (`creating-tasks-through-lunatask`): Workflows for specific proprietary services. Service name included via `-through-{service}` suffix.

## Design Principles

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