On Windows, when a skill needs Git Bash (the command-line shell that comes with Git for Windows) but it was not found, the error message is now built from a shared install hint instead of fixed text pointing to the Git for Windows download page. Skills also now show a one-time notice when Claude Code picks the shell for them automatically.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis is a small wording change, so the install advice matches what Claude Code says elsewhere.\n\n- Area: Windows\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
