    Don’t get too excited, Claude code still won’t detect skills on .agents/skills.

      They have AGI, but they don't have $20 of token budget to add a so basic functionality.

        They probably have an explicit instruction in their own CLAUDE.md to not implement that support.

          If not a system prompt telling it not to read those files unless explicitly told to.
