description
Use when creating or updating agent skills (.agents/skills)
- Prefer creating short SKILL.md files - Prefer authoring guidance or instructions in a bullet list format - Prefer deferring information instead of providing it all up front. To do so, use a local table in SKILL.md that lists out reference files under `./references` along with a description column for when to use them - If the outcome of a skill is surprising to the user, investigate why and (if necessary or possible) provide suggestions on how to improve the skill that the user can then approve or deny
