What
Watching of project-scoped skills, commands and agents directories for changes can now be refused. When a new boolean check holds and a context argument is present, Claude Code runs an asynchronous check against that context and watches only if it passes; otherwise it falls back to the previous behaviour of watching any directory that exists.
Details
User-level directories are unchanged and always watched.
What the new boolean check reads is not stated at the call site, so which projects get declined is decided elsewhere.
