What is progressive disclosure in agent skills?โ–ผ

It loads only skill names and descriptions at startup, full instructions when a skill activates, and resource files only when needed. This keeps token usage low and agents fast.

Yes. The pptx skill converts HTML slides into PowerPoint files, edits existing decks via XML, and applies templates with proper layouts and styling.

How do I create my own custom skill?โ–ผ

The skill-creator skill guides you through planning, initializing with init_skill.py, writing SKILL.md, and packaging your skill into a distributable .skill file.

Does it work with the Strands Agents SDK?โ–ผ

Yes. It is built specifically for Strands Agents SDK 1.0.0 or higher and offers three integration patterns: file-based, tool-based, and isolated sub-agent execution.
