'auto-generation' should use sentence-style capitalization.

Documentation sites now auto-generate a `skill.md` file based on your API references, guides, and features to give AI agents a comprehensive skills file with context on how to help people use your product. `skill.md` replaces the `install.md` approach with more structured capabilities and wider adoption. If you have a custom `skills.md` file at the root of your documentation repository, it replaces the auto-generated version. See [skill.md](/ai/skillmd) for more information.
