What
A new helper races the process of listing available skills against a deadline. If the listing doesn't finish before that deadline, Claude Code now fires a telemetry event and reports the outcome as timed_out instead of listed.
Why
This gives visibility into cases where skills listing is slow enough to time out, which should help identify and diagnose delays in skills syncing.
