In my experience fewer skills is significantly better.

When you have this performative folder of skills the AI wastes a bunch of tool calls, gets confused, doesn't get to the meat of the problem.

beware!

Yea I went through my global claude skills and /context yesterday because claude was performing terribly. I deleted a bunch of stuff including memory and anecdotally got better results later on in the day.

Yeah skills get loaded into context which in effect pollutes context.
