I like the way that skills.md are distributed.

  • I like the way that skills.md are distributed.
    • There is no central directory–you just put a specifically formatted file in your github repo.
    • Others can install it by pointing at your github user name + repo.
    • Yes, it's not fully decentralized (it assumes Github).
    • But a) it's easy to add other hosts, like Go did for packages.
    • And b) the fact it's two distinct actors (Anthropic and Github) makes it much less likely there will be bad behavior than if those two positions were merged into one.
