From the source SKILL.md

AccordionControl is a side-navigation control that renders a hierarchical, expandable menu of groups and items. It is the recommended navigation control for new WinForms applications — more flexible than NavBarControl, and capable of serving as a full Hamburger Menu when ViewType = HamburgerMenu.
