What
The Skill tool lets Claude run skills, which are packaged sets of instructions set up for a particular kind of task. Claude Code now has a choice in how it words the tool's description: it can describe the list of available skills as "a listing from the system" instead of "a system-reminder listing". The description of the Skill tool changed wording in this release.
Why
This changes the wording Claude reads when deciding how to use skills, not what the tool does.
