* Add why-and-when doc explaining value proposition and decision guide
Adds docs/why-and-when.md covering why skills over MCP matters (same
channel as tools, discovery, dynamic updates, control model, multi-server
composition, enterprise distribution) and when MCP distribution adds
value vs simpler alternatives. Linked from README and problem-statement.

* Add why-and-when summary to README before problem statement
Gives newcomers the value proposition immediately: skills are context,
MCP is a context protocol, and remote MCP servers can serve tools and
know-how together. Links to the full doc for depth.

* Add portable sub-agent point to why-and-when doc
Skills over MCP replaces the pattern of independently wrapping each
MCP server in a custom sub-agent with hand-written instructions —
the server author ships orchestration guidance once, everyone benefits.

* Acknowledge enterprise trust trade-offs in both directions
Address PR feedback: git-based and MCP-based skill distribution each
raise different governance concerns. Link to open question on security
and trust boundaries.

* Add decision log with ADR-lite format (#49)
Create docs/decisions.md seeded with 6 historical decisions reconstructed
from closed issues and meeting notes. Update CONTRIBUTING.md with guidance
on when to add decision log entries and add to README documents table.
* Address review feedback: reframe Decision 1 scope, fix relative links
* Update meeting notes and discussion links to main MCP repo
Meeting notes are published in the main modelcontextprotocol repo
discussions, not in this IG repo. Update CONTRIBUTING.md and README.md
to reflect this and note that future meetings/surveys are posted in
the Discord channel.
