Before, reading any MCP resource always asked for your permission. Claude Code now checks which skill resources the server lists. When the resource Claude wants to read is one of them, the read is allowed without a prompt.\n\n**Why**\n\nSkills that come from MCP servers can load their own resources without interrupting you. It also means more reads happen without your approval, so only connect MCP servers you trust.\n\n- Area: MCP\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 3\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
