AI skills repositories are like documentation but worse, full of bullshit ("you are an expert in X, Y, Z..."), just so an algorithm can roleplay with you without having to read documentation, because oh gosh reading documentation is soooooo hard (sarcasm)

@lexplt@hachyderm.io and, a lot of skills make the agent/model dumber, as they end up with conflicting/confusing crud in their context. They're often written by the agent itself, so it's probably overly verbose and overfitted to the specific problem the person mentioned when making the skill, and probably something the agent already knows how to do, so the skill just makes that task more complicated for the agent to complete.
