What's Wrong?
When activating multiple skills in a single response using parallel Skill tool calls, only the last skill displays the green indicator dot in the UI.
What Should Happen?
All activated skills should display green indicator dots in the UI sidebar, showing the user that multiple skills are active.
Error Messages/Logs
No error. This is a UI display issue - skills work correctly but only the last one shows visual indicator.
Steps to Reproduce
- Create 2+ custom skills in
~/.claude/skills/(e.g.,cremax-developmentandfrontend-design) - Ask Claude: "use skill development and frontend-design"
- Claude calls Skill tool twice in parallel for both skills
- Look at the UI sidebar - only
/frontend-designhas green dot - Verify both skills work by asking questions about either skill's domain

Additional Information
Screenshot attached showing only /frontend-design with green indicator after activating both skills.
Both skills ARE functionally loaded and working - Claude correctly uses instructions from both. The issue is purely visual feedback in the UI.
