What's Wrong?
In the list of custom commands available via /help, the formatting of the docstrings from skills is difficult to read. Even just a blank line between each docstring would be great.
What Should Happen?
The docstrings should be more readable, perhaps with a blank line between each or highlighting the docstring associated with the selected skill from the list on the left.
