What
Skills are reusable instructions Claude can load. Synced skills are a kind of skill identified by the source syncedSkills. Until now, only skills loaded from the syncedSkills folder counted. Now:
Skills whose plugin repository passes a check are also treated as synced skills, not only those loaded from that folder.
These skills are reported with the source syncedSkills in usage records.
Skills on a 'following' list are marked with followsSyncedSkillState.
In the context report's skill table, a synced skill no longer shows a plugin name after it. The old code looked at the wrong value, so that name may never have shown correctly.
Why
The way skills from these repositories are labelled and handled changes, and the context report shows them more cleanly.
