Skill Progressive Disclosure Design

Decide how to split skill content between SKILL.md and reference files for context efficiency and reliable triggering. Use this whenever creating a new Claude skill, refactoring an existing one, or when a SKILL.md is growing past 300-400 lines. Also trigger when the user mentions "progressive disclosure", "reference files", "splitting skills", "skill bundling", "context window for skills", "SKILL.md too long", "what goes in references/", "skill structure", or expresses any uncertainty about where to put content within a skill. Use this even if the user phrases the question as a triggering problem ("how do I make my skill trigger better"), because that question is often confused with the splitting question and needs to be disentangled first.
