Depends on your plans for this character.
If you care about Min/Max (relative to an Erudite), and you want to take this character all the way to Velious, then don't put points into STR. You should be able to hit 255 STR easily with gear + Maniacal Strength + Focus of Spirit.
You are also going to get a lot of STA gear, and Riotous health. An Erudite with Riotous Health and Enlightenment has 125 STA and 138 INT, assuming they are naked, and no points were put into either stat on creation. This means putting 15 points into STA is only going to make you even with your INT, at best. In many cases, an SK would not want to waste a spell slot on Enlightenment, and tank gear tends to prefer STA over INT.
With the previous comments on STR and STA, INT becomes the hardest stat to max, and therefore the best place to put your points in the long run. This means +5 AGI/ +15 INT. You will suffer for a good portion of the game, however, with the low STR. My Troll SK has about 115 stones of equipment he carries around. This is before coin or farmed items come into my inventory.
That being said, a large mana pool isn't a huge bonus for SKs. My Troll SK rarely (if ever) has a serious mana issue caused by lack of max mana. This is why big races tend to be the best choice for Min/Max. The loss of STR/STA due to hitting the 255 cap early isn't a big deal, due to the marginal gains from max mana. They also get two nice bonuses: Slam and regen/frontal stun immunity. These bonuses are 100% better than max mana.
In conclusion, if you don't want to go super Min/Max, then +5 AGI/+15 STR would be the best choice, for the sanity you will have while leveling up your character. Being overweight all the time is going to suck way more than the extra HP you lose. If you want to go super Min/Max, do +5 AGI/+15 INT to get the most gains out of your endgame Velious gear.
