[DOCS] Skills command docs missing type-to-filter search box

Documentation Type

Missing documentation (feature not documented)

Documentation Location

Section/Topic

/skills command reference and related skill-browsing guidance

Current Documentation

The docs currently say:

Type / to see every command available to you, or type / followed by letters to filter.

and the /skills entry in the commands reference says:

| /skills | List available skills. Press t to sort by token count |

Desktop guidance also says:

Skills extend what Claude can do. Claude loads them automatically when relevant, or you can invoke one directly: type / in the prompt box or click the + button and select Slash commands to browse what's available.

None of the current docs mention that the dedicated /skills picker now includes its own type-to-filter search box.

What's Wrong or Missing?

Changelog v2.1.121 added a new /skills capability:

Added a type-to-filter search box to /skills so you can find a skill in long lists without scrolling

The current documentation still describes /skills as a simple list with token-count sorting, but it does not tell users that they can now search within the /skills picker itself.

That leaves an important usability improvement undiscoverable, especially for users with many bundled, personal, project, and plugin skills.

Suggested Improvement

Update the /skills command documentation to mention the new filter workflow explicitly.

For example, the commands reference could say:

/skills — List available skills. Type to filter the list by skill name, then press t to sort by token count.

Related browsing pages such as interactive-mode and desktop could also add a short note that the dedicated /skills picker supports type-to-filter search for long skill lists.

Impact

Medium - Makes feature difficult to understand
