The skill description byte cap drifts between the agentic-os-kai validator and the public handbook:

  • agentic-os-kai/scripts/validate-skills.py (via categories.yaml) rejects descriptions over 200 bytes and SKILL.md over 10000 bytes.
  • .agents/skills/tooling-skill-authoring/SKILL.md (public handbook) states a 500-byte hard ceiling on description.

Hit during agentic-os-kai#425: descriptions sized to the documented 500 were rejected at 200. Reconcile the two so the documented number matches what the validator enforces (and confirm which cap is intended).
