arXiv:2606. 26669v1 Announce Type: new Abstract: Agents often repeatedly solve similar task instances from scratch, leading to unnecessary reasoning cost and long execution traces.

Agent skills represent a standardized format for packaging procedural knowledge and domain expertise, serving within agent harness systems as an essential mechanism to continually constrain a language model's behavior space for repeatable, high-quality task execution. However, because strong closed-source models entail high inference costs, current popular agent harnesses, such as Codex and OpenClaw, remain prohibitively expensive when deploying these skills to accomplish real-world tasks.
