Twilio Skills
Skills are structured packages of procedural knowledge for AI coding agents. They follow a progressive disclosure architecture: your agent sees lightweight metadata for all available skills, loads the relevant skill when a task matches, and drills into reference material on demand — keeping your context window lean while providing deep domain expertise exactly when needed.
