Mechanism
Breaks down how the skill works and what it produces, so you can quickly judge whether it fits your scenario and value.
Use Cases
A developer creating a new Agent Skill references `/writing-great-skills` for SKILL.md structure. The skill helps decide: user-invoked or model-invoked (based on manual-only invocation, context load vs cognitive load trade-off), description writing (front-load triggers, one trigger per branch, deduplicate), and information hierarchy organisation (what goes in SKILL.md vs external references). The result is a SKILL.md following predictability principles.
A maintainer finds an existing skill is too long and agents frequently "prematurely complete" steps. Referencing `/writing-great-skills`'s "premature completion" failure mode analysis identifies the root cause as vague completion criteria. The solution: sharpen completion criteria first, then split by sequence to hide post-completion steps if needed. Simultaneously applies the no-op test sentence by sentence — deletable sentences are removed outright rather than rewritten. The restructured skill is shorter and agent behaviour is more predictable.
Skill Relationships
Dependency relationships read as "the upper tier points to the lower tier." The current Skill sits in the middle tier — above are Skills that depend on it, below are Skills it depends on.
