What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
A skill is a packaged set of instructions Claude can use, and a hook is a command that runs automatically at a set moment. A program controlling Claude Code remotely can now ask it to run a skill's command hooks. Claude Code refuses if this machine's settings keep skill hooks turned off.
The list of skills and commands such a program can request now includes skills from your user settings, marked as coming from there, and not only those from the project. Each skill's details can also include the plugin it came from and its path on disk.
Why
Apps that drive Claude Code remotely can now see and run more of your skills, while a machine set to keep skill hooks off still stays that way.
