The exception is remote or cowork runs, where extraction still happens.\n\n**Details**\n\n- The remote check is `CLAUDE_CODE_REMOTE` or `CLAUDE_CODE_IS_COWORK`; either being set restores extraction for synced skills.\n- The previous rule was a per-source list that skipped extraction only for `mcp` and `memoryStore` skills.\n\n**Evidence**\n\n`if (e.loadedFrom === \"syncedSkills\") return !Jy_();`\n\n- Area: Skills\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5"}
