Should agentic skill files be elsewhere ?

I noticed a skills/ directory was added, containing both postgis-specific
document and postgis-agnostic document.

The directory has no README file, but I learnt that such files are meant
to be read by AI-based coding agents, to pass them to LLM inference
tools as a "context".

My question is: do these files belong in the PostGIS code base ? I suspect no.

For comparison, the Gitea project uses a separate repository [1] for this,
I'd use the same approach.

A separate repository would have a proper README and could maybe also
have different set of skills for different scenarios, and different usage
instructions for different tools (I find it unfair that a single tool name
is referenced by these docs while there are a lot of tools out there).

So, what do you think about this ? I haven't found a thread in this list
discussing this addition, so here it is.
