> Skills are good for instilling non-repeatable, yet intuitive or institutional knowledge.

Maybe I'm misinterpreting you, but can you explain this more? I've been using skills for repeatable tasks. Why an MCP instead?

Saying "non-repeatable" was probably wrong. "Unique" might be better. Things LLMs arent naturally able to do or infer.

If the model can figure it out with tokens, but my institutional knowledge MCP tool can do it with a few CPU cycles, it’s faster and deterministic and repeatable.
