Seems like a more organized way to do the equivalent of a folder full of md files + instructing the LLM to ls that folder and read the ones it needs

If so it would be most welcome since LLMs doesn't always consistently follow the folder full of MD files to the same depth and consistency.
what makes it more likely that claude would read these .md files then?
Skills is hopefully put through a deterministic process that is guaranteed to occur, instead of a non-deterministic one that can only ever be guaranteed to happen most of the time (the way it is now).
It is literally just injecting context into the prompt.
It includes both the file names and a configurable description string. That’s where you put the TLDR of when to use each skill.
This improves it a great deal but at a certain point, maybe 60-80% of the way it can start fading.
