What
A skill is a packaged set of instructions Claude can use for a task. A skill can include a compatibility line that says what it needs to run. Claude now has instructions for when that line says the skill needs your own computer or private network, and the current session cannot reach them. In that case Claude:
says what the skill needs
does not install the missing piece or try to stand in for it
does not suggest changing network settings
offers to do whatever part of the request it still can
Why
This matters when Claude runs somewhere remote or closed off, where some skills cannot work. You get a clear explanation instead of a workaround attempt.
