/claude-api entry in the "Bundled skills" table

Current Documentation

The docs currently say:

/claude-api — "Load Claude API reference material for your project's language (Python, TypeScript, Java, Go, Ruby, C#, PHP, or cURL) and Agent SDK reference for Python and TypeScript. Covers tool use, streaming, batches, structured outputs, and common pitfalls. Also activates automatically when your code imports anthropic, @anthropic-ai/sdk, or claude_agent_sdk"

The same description also appears on:

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/slash-commands

What's Wrong or Missing?

Changelog v2.1.97 says:

Updated /claude-api skill to cover Managed Agents alongside the Claude API

But the public description for /claude-api still only mentions Claude API reference material and Agent SDK reference material. It does not mention Managed Agents at all.

That makes the bundled skill listing outdated: users scanning the skills table cannot discover that /claude-api now covers Managed Agents too.

Suggested Improvement

Update the /claude-api description in the bundled skills table to mention Managed Agents explicitly everywhere this shared description appears.

For example, revise the description so it says the skill covers:

  • Claude API reference material
  • Agent SDK reference material
  • Managed Agents guidance/reference

If Managed Agents has a preferred product term or specific scope, use that exact wording consistently in both skills and slash-commands.

Impact

Medium - Makes feature difficult to understand
