/skills updates are not reflected in model-visible “Available skills” within the same CLI session

What subscription do you have?

What platform is your computer?

Linux 5.4.0-42-generic x86_64

What terminal emulator and version are you using (if applicable)?

VSCode

What issue are you seeing?

In the same session, /skills changes (enable/disable) update the UI picker, but the assistant still uses the old session-start Available skills snapshot. So behavior is out of sync: UI state changed, model-visible skill list did not.

What steps can reproduce the bug?

1. Start a new CLI session with skills A/B/C enabled.
2. Ask: “What skills do you have?” (assistant reports A/B/C).
3. Run /skills and disable one/all skills, or enable a new skill D.
4. Ask again in the same session: “What skills do you have?”
5. Assistant still reports old A/B/C (or misses D), despite /skills UI showing
   updated state.

What is the expected behavior?

/skills changes should be reflected in the model-visible skill list in the same session (at least on next turn), or the UI should clearly indicate changes apply only to new sessions.
