Claude Code v2.1.105 (2026-04-13) shipped a native version of this skill's core thesis: a ~1% skill-listing budget that collapses the least-used skills' descriptions to bare names, plus a per-skill description cap — both surfaced by claude doctor.

What changed in v1.9.0

  • New "native catalog budget" section documenting skillListingBudgetFraction (default 0.01) and maxSkillDescriptionChars (default 1536); /doctor is now the canonical readout.
  • Flagged raising the budget fraction as the anti-pattern (~111k tokens/session — in the same ballpark as the skill's earlier ~122k full-description estimate; measured on the current already-trimmed catalog, so consistent rather than an exact match).
  • Corrected two now-false claims"standalone skills inject as bare names" and "name-only is a blanket no-op" — which only held before the budget made description-dropping usage-ranked.
  • README + both plugin manifests updated; version 1.8.0 → 1.9.0.
