Claude Skills are awesome, maybe a bigger deal than MCP
Anthropic introduced Claude Skills, a new pattern for extending LLM capabilities using Markdown files with instructions, scripts, and resources. Skills are token-efficient (loading only when needed), depend on code execution environments, and are simpler to create than MCP implementations. The system enables general computer automation beyond just coding tasks, with skills shareable as single files or folders. Skills work with other models too, potentially sparking wider adoption than the Model Context Protocol.
