Writes, audits, and compresses agent skills so they earn their tokens. Covers include-vs-cut, real expertise vs what the model already knows, sizing and progressive disclosure, description/trigger design, multi-file skills. For: write a skill for X, improve/shrink this skill, is this skill worth its tokens, my skill never triggers, port domain expertise into SKILL.md, split one into references.

# Knowledge-Delta Skill Architect `01` `02` `03` = the numbered files under `references/`; read triggers in the table at the end. Sources and their limits: `03`. The method here is model- and vendor-independent. What is not — numbers, runtime behavior — is confined to `02`: §0 for the numbers, inline flags wherever behavior is runtime-specific. When a spec or a runtime changes, refresh `02`. **Spend context only where the model's behavior changes.** Write for the target model, not as a human tutorial. Omit orientation, motivation, definitions, examples and spelled-out reasoning **unless the baseline showed they prevent a failure**; the gap is sometimes a missing definition. Keep decision rules, conditions, thresholds, discriminators, and the rationale that makes a rule generalize. Your default register is documentation; override it on purpose. ## Classes | Class | What you saw | Content | Budget | |---|---|---|---| | **[W]** | States it wrong, confidently, and never asks | Overwrite the prior | Highest value per token | | **[K]** | Doesn't know, hedges, or invents plausibly | The fact | Scale to blast radius | | **[A]** | Knows it, skips it under task pressure | One imperative line | Only if you saw the skip | | **[O]** | Solves it acceptably, never considers the stronger option | That option + when it wins | High — most lore lands here | | **[R]** | Gets it right unprompted, and nothing better exists | — | Delete | [R] is a correctness bug, not waste: irrelevant conte
