Those reloads now:\n\n- Time each step: waiting, refreshing, and rescanning.\n\n- Record the timings in Claude Code's usage data.\n\n- Report back whether the reload found no changes.\n\nThe reload also now waits on a tracked round of work instead of waiting on all the pieces directly.\n\n**Why**\n\nSDK hosts and Anthropic get timing data on how long plugin and skill reloads take, and a host can tell when a reload changed nothing.\n\n- Area: SDK\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 1\/5\n- Signal: 1\/5\n- Scope: individual\n- Heads-up: no"}
