This is why I created the /do router, to route to all skills. I also have anti rationalization, progressive context discovery etc. I only make it for me, so it's a bit complex and targeted towards me, and what I do, but it's pretty easy to adjust things. https://github.com/notque/vexjoy-agent Working on reading through Agent Skills, it seems we've converged on a lot of the same points, and I've never seen it, so trying to get an understanding of it. Edit 1: I don't like all the commands. I just rely on a single router to automatically decide what I want, and that feels like the most reasonable way to me to communicate with it. I don't want to remember things. And that's the way for me to scale the number of skills and activities. I don't have to think about them. Edit 2: We have very different routers. https://github.com/addyosmani/agent-

skills/blob/f504276d8e07... vs https://github.com/notque/vexjoy-agent/blob/main/skills/do/S... I personally wouldn't call theirs an intelligent router. They are dancing between a few different skills. We have extremely different setups there. But of course, I'm using way more context to get it done. I'm even sending it out to Haiku to build the route choices. I choose to use tokens to make things better for myself, not everyone would make the same choice, so I certainly see why they are using a few skills, and composing them. Edit 3: This is much easier for a user to wrap their head around because there's much less. I am only focused on the best improvements I can make that show value for my use cases. This is straight foward to reason about. This seems like a nice way to get the best concepts for people trying to understand them. I commend them for a clean, simple approach. Edit 4: Yeah, I think there are some things I can learn from them which is always good. I especially like simple decisions like collapsing the install details for each harness in the readme. I'm going to read over the entire thing and look for opportunities to improve my stuff. We are all working together, learning, testing, building, trying to find the best way to implement things.
