What probably matters to youSection of the release

The prototype skill builds and republishes a single HTML page artifact, but its enable check always returns false.

What

A built-in skill registered as name: "prototype" ships in this build but is switched off, so it never appears in the skill menu.

Details
  • SKILL.md tells Claude to run a short intake ("two to four at most, in one short message"), state assumptions, load the artifact-design skill, write one self-contained HTML page in the scratchpad directory, and publish it with the Artifact tool
  • iteration republishes the SAME file so the URL and version history carry forward
  • registration passes isEnabled: Lgo, and function Lgo() { return !1; } is a build constant, so the skill is unreachable on 2.1.221 unless a later build changes that helper
  • also exported as isPrototypeEnabled
Evidence

menuDescription: "Prototype an idea as a working Artifact"

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