Unclear It is not clear where this resolved folder is used, so the effect on how skills behave is unknown.

What

A skill is a packaged set of instructions Claude Code can run, and each one records the folder it lives in. When Claude Code works out a directory from that folder, it now uses the part of the path before .claude, which is the project folder. Before, it worked out a path relative to another location. The text bundled with skills and tool use was also replaced.

Why

This changes how paths tied to a particular skill are resolved.
