Skills gave an agent what to know. The missing half is what role to play. Agent Studio lets you author subagents next to your skills in one place, serve both over the same MCP endpoint with the same progressive disclosure, browse them over REST and the dd CLI, and publish them to the community under a moderation loop. Here is the design and why the two belong in one studio.
Skills, files, memory, and generation do not need four integrations. They need one MCP endpoint with tiered disclosure, one API key that scopes everything to its owner, and one credit balance. The same tools answer to an MCP client, an in-product chat, and a CLI. Here is the whole architecture, and why it is the shape that makes a fleet of agents coherent.
The first version of skills-over-MCP served a fixed first-party catalog. Skill Studio extends it two ways: anyone can author skills that ride the same progressive-disclosure endpoint scoped to their own API key, and a skill file can be a link instead of a copy - a URL whose bytes are only fetched at the moment an agent decides it needs them. Progressive disclosure stops at the skill boundary no longer. It runs out to the open web.
SKILL.md solved knowledge packaging with progressive disclosure. MCP solved capability transport but ships flat, context-hungry tool lists. The next shape combines them - an MCP server whose tools are a skill directory, so an agent pays context only for what the task needs. Here is the argument and a working implementation.
