What's Wrong?

Installing a new skill via .skill file (double-clicking from Finder) always fails with the error toast: "スキルのアップロードに失敗しました。再度お試しください。"

Varied file size (11354 bytes → 1394 bytes), skill name (mercari-listingmercari), and ZIP format — all failed.

Log from ~/Library/Logs/Claude/main.log:

The error occurs inside the web app after this point. No further error detail is logged.

Existing skills (npb-roster-update, moneyforward-to-sheets) installed on April 12 work fine. The skill IS available in Claude Code (Code tab) via ~/.claude/skills/ — only the chat UI registration via Anthropic's server is failing.

What Should Happen?

New skill should be registered and appear under Customize > Skills in the chat UI.

Steps to Reproduce

  1. Create a .skill ZIP file containing a folder with SKILL.md inside
  2. Double-click the .skill file from Finder
