Skill Authoring
Create/revise skills with safe eager instructions; detailed manuals, templates, examples, and edge cases load only when needed.
Budgets
SKILL.md: target 80–140 normal-width lines, hard maximum 150, target 600–1,200 words.- References: target 60–130 normal-width lines, hard maximum 150, target 300–900 words.
- Do not satisfy budgets by packing long lines. Justify larger files by safety value.
- Keep universal workflow, safety, routing, output, and pre-reference decision rules eager.
- Split only delayed boundaries into one-hop references or scripts after compression.
Folder Structure
Use skills/<skill-name>/SKILL.md, skill-local references/, skill-local scripts/, and
package/plugin-level shared references/. Do not deep-link another skill's private references;
invoke that skill by name or promote the rule to a shared reference.
