Large language model (LLM) agents are increasingly extended through Agent Skills, reusable artifacts that package natural-language metadata, procedural instructions, and execution-time resources for runtime use. As open-source skill marketplaces expand, users and agents increasingly rely on brief metadata to select third-party skills, making it difficult to detect inconsistencies between a skill's description and its true behavior, a problem we call cross-layer misalignment.
arXiv:2607. 28048v2 Announce Type: replace Abstract: Skill-based prompting has become a practical mechanism for improving large language model (LLM) agents, yet existing skill acquisition methods often treat skills as experience summaries, memory entries, or direct summaries of successful demonstrations.
