Artifact publish errors now explain when an unknown capability is just from an older pinned contract

What

When publishing an artifact fails because it references a capability Claude Code doesn't recognize, the error message now checks whether that capability actually exists in the current, up-to-date list of known capabilities. If it does, the error explains that the publish is pinned to an older contract version, either because the caller explicitly requested that older contract or because the artifact's own stored data specifies it.

Why

This turns a confusing "unknown capability" error into an explanation that the mismatch is due to version pinning, making it clear the fix is a version issue rather than a genuinely unsupported feature.
