When Claude Code fetches that list, it now separates accepted skills from declined ones and keeps a reason for each one it declines, including when two skills share the same address. Previously, badly formed entries were counted and dropped without a reason.\n\nThe log message now reads \"Listed N skills\" from the server.\n\n**Why**\n\nIt is easier to work out why a skill from an MCP server did not load.\n\n- Area: MCP\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
