Add "How do Agent Skills work?" section to home.mdx landing page
Adapted from the "How skills work" section of `what-are-skills.mdx`, with the heading reworded as a question to match the sibling sections, and the closing sentence rewritten to emphasize the payoff of progressive disclosure. Co-Authored-By: Claude Opus 4.7 (1M context) <noreply@anthropic.com>

## How do Agent Skills work?
|
||||
|
||||
Agents load skills through **progressive disclosure**, in three stages:
|
||||
|
||||
1. **Discovery**: At startup, agents load only the name and description of each available skill, just enough to know when it might be relevant.
|
||||
|
||||
2. **Activation**: When a task matches a skill's description, the agent reads the full `SKILL.md` instructions into context.
|
||||
|
||||
3. **Execution**: The agent follows the instructions, optionally executing bundled code or loading referenced files as needed.
|
||||
|
||||
Full instructions load only when a task calls for them, so agents can keep many skills on hand with only a small context footprint.
|
||||
|
||||
## Adoption
|
||||
|
||||
Agent Skills are supported by leading AI development tools.
