And I really don't like this redundancy either. The skill should be strictly as short as it can possibly be and then aim at the _existing_ documentation. If agents are getting something wrong after reading Documentation/process/stable-kernel-rules.rst, then we need to add the changes _there_, not in a parallel agent-only file. I would want to see all these skills designed to give the framework needed by the agent to find the _existing_ documentation. -- Kees Cook
