-## How Skills Work
+## Adding a Skill
 
-A skill is a directory containing at minimum a `SKILL.md` file. When pi loads, it reads all `SKILL.md` files in this directory and makes their instructions available to the agent. The `description` field in each skill's front matter tells pi when to activate that skill.
+To install a skill from elsewhere, clone or symlink it into `~/.pi/agent/skills/`:
-
-Skills can include:
-- **Scripts** — shell scripts, Node modules, or any executable code
-- **Assets** — templates, prompts, validation gates, etc.
-- **Additional docs** — referenced via relative paths from `SKILL.md`
-
-## Adding a New Skill
-
-1. Create a directory under `~/.pi/agent/skills/<name>/`
-2. Add a `SKILL.md` with front matter and instructions
-3. Optionally add scripts, assets, or subdirectories
-4. Restart pi (or the skill will be picked up on next load)
-
-### SKILL.md Format
-
-```markdown
----
-name: my-skill
-description: What this skill does — when pi should activate it
----
-
-# My Skill
-
-Instructions for the agent go here.
-```

-## Cloning Skills from Other Sources
-
-To install a skill from a git repo or another location, you can clone it directly into this directory:
 
 ```bash
 git clone https://github.com/user/my-skill ~/.pi/agent/skills/my-skill
 ```
 
-Or symlink for development:
