Documentation Type

Incorrect/outdated documentation

Documentation Location

https://code.claude.com/docs/en/skills

Section/Topic

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That makes the bundled skill listing outdated: users scanning the skills table cannot discover that /claude-api now covers Managed Agents too.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

extent analysis

TL;DR

Update the /claude-api description in the bundled skills table to include Managed Agents guidance/reference.

Guidance

  • Review the changelog entry for v2.1.97 to understand the changes made to the /claude-api skill.
  • Update the description of /claude-api in the bundled skills table on the affected pages (https://code.claude.com/docs/en/skills and https://code.claude.com/docs/en/slash-commands) to mention Managed Agents explicitly.
  • Ensure consistent wording is used for Managed Agents across both pages.
  • Verify that the updated description accurately reflects the current functionality of the /claude-api skill.

Example

The revised description could be:

/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, as well as guidance on Managed Agents. 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"

Notes

The update should be made to both affected pages to ensure consistency and accuracy of the documentation.

Recommendation

Apply workaround: Update the documentation to reflect the changes made to the /claude-api skill, as described in the changelog entry for v2.1.97. This will ensure that users have accurate information about the skill's functionality.
