What problem does it solve?
This Skill provides a clear framework to decide whether to use a Skill (knowledge injection) or an Agent (autonomous worker) within GitHub Copilot CLI, preventing confusion and ensuring efficient AI workflow design.
Core Features & Use Cases
- Decision Framework: Offers a quick TL;DR rule and a detailed decision tree.
- Role Clarification: Differentiates between Skills (informing the main AI) and Agents (separate subprocesses).
- Use Case: Before designing a new automation, consult this Skill to determine if your task requires injecting knowledge into the current AI context (Skill) or delegating an autonomous, parallelizable task to a separate process (Agent).
