Both plugins referenced the same source directory, causing Claude Code to cache all 17 skills identically under two different prefixes. This wastes context tokens and causes routing ambiguity. Merged into a single "anthropic-skills" plugin that exposes all 16 non-API skills. The "claude-api" plugin remains separate. Fixes anthropics#919

Summary
Both
document-skillsandexample-skillsplugins reference the same source directory ("source": "./"), causing Claude Code to cache all 17 skills identically under two different prefixes. This wastes context tokens and causes routing ambiguity.Problem
When both plugins are enabled (default after marketplace install), Claude loads every skill twice:
document-skills:pdf,document-skills:xlsx,document-skills:algorithmic-art, ...example-skills:pdf,example-skills:xlsx,example-skills:algorithmic-art, ...Both cache directories have identical file counts (376 files) and content.
Fix
Merged
document-skillsandexample-skillsinto a singleanthropic-skillsplugin that exposes all 16 non-API skills under one prefix. Theclaude-apiplugin remains separate.Users who previously disabled one plugin as a workaround can remove that setting.
Fixes #919
