@copilot let's think about the wording here. This skill is a meta-skill, it helps people to create real agent skills about microsoft technologies. For example if a user wants to teach coding agent how to use a newly released Azure library, it can use this microsoft-skill-creator skill to create a special skill just for that library.

how to express this idea clearly and concisely in the table?

Updated the wording to clarify it's a meta-skill that generates other skills. Changed from "Create agent skills" to "Meta-skill that generates custom agent skills" and updated the use case to be more specific: "Creating a skill to teach agents about a new Azure library, .NET feature, or other Microsoft tech". Also updated other mentions for consistency. (commit 70990f6)
