| Skills are best suited for reusable guidance and lightweight automation. | ||
| While they can include executable scripts, they do not provide an access-management system, instead relying on tokens saved locally. | ||
| If a Skill needs to interact with services, the surrounding agent environment still needs appropriate authentication, permissions, etc. |

This is really good, but I actually think that skills are so straightforward that you could add a real example from the markdown of an actual skill here and people would see what skills contain and how they work through that.

Done, though perhaps linking to a skills repo (ours?) may be better to show real skills and, ideally, their use cases and results from using them.

Summary
Added section on AI and micro-chapter on extending agents' capabilities and their associated conventions/specs. The chapter may be too generic, so I would be happy to shorten it or turn it into a subsection of appropriate research pathways (e.g. agentic skills as a means for reproducible research, as suggested by Malvika)
