What

A skill is a packaged set of instructions Claude can use, and a deny rule is a permission rule that blocks something. When you write a deny rule for skills with a wildcard, the hint Claude Code shows now ends with "to deny every skill." instead of "to deny every skill tool."

Why

This is a wording change only.
