What's Wrong?
What's Wrong?
I am running Claude Desktop via a Gateway account provided to me. When I upload a skill to that account, SKILL.MD is transferred, but all other files and directories do not transfer. This does not happen when I deploy the same skill to my local account running on my own machine. See screenshot for comparison.

This is a repeat of https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/83514. The bot told me to raise this as an issue again due to inactivity on the previous issue that it closed.
What Should Happen?
I expect all of the files and directories to be transferred with the skill.

This is a repeat of https://github.com/anthropics/claude-code/issues/83514. The bot told me to raise this as an issue again due to inactivity on the previous issue that it closed. So this has been reported earlier, but the bot clearly told to create a new issue.
