To create agent instructions, you generate a root SKILL.md file with valid YAML frontmatter containing at least the name and description fields, followed by concise operator-authored guidance for the specific domain.
Progressive disclosure in skill authoring is a structuring technique where you keep the root SKILL.md concise and move detailed domain references or examples into optional supporting files to ensure easy discovery and activation.
You should include deterministic scripts in your agent workflow design for repeatable operations that require consistent execution, ensuring the skill remains reliable without relying solely on natural language instruction interpretation.
No, you do not need to write contract-style tests that assert instruction wording when authoring skills. Safe structuring avoids these tests and focuses on clear, concise operator-authored guidance instead.
The best way to structure an agent skill directory is to start with a root SKILL.md for core instructions, then add optional supporting reference and example files as content grows to maintain clear progressive disclosure.
