Unclear Whether the mod-making skill is available to every user is not stated.
What
A skill is a set of instructions Claude can choose to use for a certain kind of request, and Claude decides when to use one by reading its description. The description of the mod-making skill has been rewritten. It now covers any change to Claude's own interface or behaviour, such as:
a live pane or panel
a band above the prompt
a status line
a toast (a short pop-up notice)
a slash command
a hook on tool calls or prompts, which is code that runs when Claude uses a tool or you send a prompt
Before, it was limited to a pane, band, status line, toast or hook, and mentioned the desktop Code tab.
Why
With a broader description, Claude will reach for this skill for more requests, such as asking for a new slash command.
