i like how Anthropic has positioned themselves as the true AI research company and donating “standards” like that.

Although Skills are just md files but it’s good to see them “donate” it.

There goal seems to be simple: Focus on coding and improving it. They’ve found a great niche and hopefully revenue generating business there.

OpenAI on the other hand doesn’t give me same vibes, they don’t seem very oriented. They’re playing catchup with both Google models and Anthropic

I have no idea why I’m about to defend OpenAI here. BUT OpenAI have released some open weight models like gpt-oss and whisper. But sure open weight not open source. And yeah I really don’t like OpenAI as a company to be clear.

A skill can also contain runnable code.

Many many MCPs could and should just be a skill instead.
