Summary

Updated the changelog entry for version 2.0.20 to provide clearer documentation about the Claude Skills feature and clarify internal implementation changes related to tool invocation.

Changes

  • Expanded the Claude Skills changelog entry with detailed explanation of the feature
  • Clarified that the "Skill" tool now handles slash command invocation internally (previously done by the "SlashCommand" tool)
  • Emphasized that this is an internal implementation change with no user-facing impact to slash commands

Details

The changelog update ensures users understand that:

  1. Claude Skills are a new feature providing specialized capabilities and domain knowledge
  2. The internal refactoring of tool invocation is transparent to end users
  3. Slash commands continue to function exactly as before from a user perspective

Update the 2.0.20 changelog entry to explain that:
- Skills is a new feature for specialized capabilities
- The Skill tool also handles slash command invocation
- This is an internal change, not a replacement of slash commands
- Slash commands continue to work the same way for users

This addresses confusion where people thought slash commands were
being replaced with skills.
