That feels like a stupid article. well of course if you have one single thing you want to optimize putting it into AGENTS.md is better. but the advantage of skills is exactly that you don't cram them all into the AGENTS file. Let's say you had 3 different elaborate things you want the agent to do. good luck putting them all in your AGENTS.md and later hoping that the agent remembers any of it. After all the key advantage of the SKILLs is that they get loaded to the end of the context when needed
