TL;DR

Two-line correction to docs/src/content/docs/producer/author-primitives/skills.md. The prior wording asserted Windsurf's runtime only scans .windsurf/skills/. Per the official Windsurf docs, Cascade also discovers .agents/skills/ and ~/.agents/skills/ for cross-agent compatibility.

Why this is a separate PR

Cascade discovers .agents/skills/ natively per
https://docs.windsurf.com/windsurf/cascade/skills#skill-scopes, so
the prior wording ('Claude and Windsurf keep harness-native paths
because their runtimes scan their own roots') was outdated for the
windsurf half. APM still deploys to .windsurf/skills/ today; the
move onto .agents/skills/ is tracked separately in #1520.

Pull request overview

This PR updates the skills authoring documentation to clarify Windsurf/Cascade skill discovery behavior while preserving the current APM deploy-path documentation.

Changes:

  • Clarifies that Claude remains on .claude/skills/ due to default scan behavior.
  • Notes that Windsurf currently deploys to .windsurf/skills/, while Cascade also discovers .agents/skills/.
  • Links the planned Windsurf convergence work to issue #1520.
