SKILL.md

Creates and refactors AGENTS.md files following progressive disclosure principles. Keeps files minimal and focused—avoiding the "ball of mud" that hurts agent performance.

Frontier LLMs can follow 150-200 instructions with reasonable consistency. Every token in AGENTS.md loads on every request, regardless of relevance. The ideal file should be as small as possible.

Agent does something wrong → you add a rule → repeat hundreds of times → "ball of mud." Different developers add conflicting opinions. Nobody does a full style pass. Auto-generated files make this worse by prioritizing comprehensiveness over restraint.

Creates minimal, effective AGENTS.md files using progressive disclosure. Triggers on "create agents.md", "refactor agents.md", "review my agents.md", "claude.md", or questions about agent configuration files. Also triggers proactively when a project is missing AGENTS.md.
