What the author says it does

This skill should be used to explain or reason about the foundational concepts of context engineering: what context is, the anatomy of a context window, how attention mechanics work, the U-shaped attention curve, why context quality matters more than quantity, and the mental models needed to interpret every other context-engineering decision. Use this for conceptual explanation, onboarding, and background reading. Route operational work to the specialized skills: debugging attention failures goes to context-degradation, token-efficiency work goes to context-optimization, conversation summariz…
