## Focused knowledge, loaded on demand

This example is a complete technical writing agent with one skill for
explaining engineering concepts. The base agent stays small. It initially sees
only the skill's name, description, and triggers.

When a request matches, the model loads the full procedure through Orcha's
internal `load_skill` tool. Orcha continues the same run automatically, and
the loaded instructions remain active for the durable session.

A skill is the right fit for policy, process, domain knowledge, or a repeatable
method. It guides the model but does not execute code.
