dSebastien shares a trick to slash Claude Code startup context: instead of loading every skill up front, the assistant searches the skill catalog and loads only the one a task needs. In his Obsidian vault, a fresh session dropped from 63K to 22K tokens — 65% less context burned before typing a word. The approach ships in Obsidian Starter Kit v5.
