Source Intelligence

DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Skill Tool Description Improvements

The Skill tool's description and parameter guidance have been refined:

  • Skill name parameter now reads: "The name of a skill from the available-skills list. Do not guess names."
  • The tool now instructs: "Only invoke a skill that appears in that list, or one the user explicitly typed as /<name> in their message. Never guess or invent a skill name from training data"
  • Simplified invocation guidance with explicit instructions for plugin-namespaced skills
Evidence

Updated skill tool description (search for "Do not guess names")

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
