What
A skill is a packaged set of instructions Claude can follow for a task. Claude Code has a new note telling Claude that the group of tools a skill's guidance is written for is not available right now, that it should not call or load them, and that it should continue with the tools it has.
Why
This stops a skill from steering Claude toward tools it cannot use.
