+Agent resources
+===============
+
+The ``agents/`` directory holds skills, prompts, and other resources for
+coding assistants.
+
+Skills live under ``agents/skills/<name>/``, with a ``SKILL.md`` entry point
+in the `Agent Skills format
+<https://agentskills.io/specification>`_. Read the relevant resource
+directly from its repository path. Links within a skill are relative to
+that skill's directory.
