Summary

Converts the Skills Over MCP Interest Group to a Working Group. The group has moved beyond exploration into producing concrete deliverables (Skills Extension SEP, reference implementations, Agent Skills spec coordination), warranting the WG structure and authority.

Charter changes

  • Group Type: Interest Group → Working Group
  • Mission statement reframed from exploration to concrete deliverables
  • In Scope restructured to WG categories (Specification Work, Reference Implementations, Cross-Cutting Concerns, Documentation)
  • Removed "Approving spec changes" from Out of Scope (WGs own this via SEP process)
  • Added Leadership section (Ola Hungerford + Peter Alexander as Leads)
  • Added Authority & Decision Rights table
  • Membership table: Facilitator → Lead, added Discord column per template
  • Operations: Office Hours → Working Session
  • Deliverables table: added Target Date column per WG template
  • All -ig references updated to -wg
  • Changelog: added IG formation date (2026-02-01) and note that the formal charter was derived from the experimental-ext-skills repo README, which predated the charter process (SEP-2149)

Navigation

  • Moved community/skills-over-mcp/charter from "Interest Group Charters" to "Working Group Charters" in docs.json
  • Removed the now-empty "Interest Group Charters" group

Follow-up items

  • Confirm membership participation levels (Participant vs WG Member)
  • Update access repo — move SKILLS_OVER_MCP_IG to Working Groups section as SKILLS_OVER_MCP_WG in roleIds.ts, roles.ts, users.ts
  • Rename Discord channel #skills-over-mcp-ig#skills-over-mcp-wg
  • Rename GitHub Discussions category meeting-notes-skills-over-mcp-igmeeting-notes-skills-over-mcp-wg
  • Update experimental-ext-skills README (still references "Interest Group" and -ig channels)
