Check Loaded Skills

This skill helps you verify which Claude Code skills are currently loaded in your project.

When to Use This Skill

Observability

First: At the start of execution, display:

🔧 Skill "julien-workflow-check-loaded-skills" activated

Use this skill when you need to:

• Verify loaded skills before invoking infrastructure or workflow skills
• Debug missing skills when a skill you expect isn't available
• Check skill hierarchy between global (~/.claude/skills/) and project-level (.claude/skills/)
• Discover available skills to understand what's in your environment
• Troubleshoot skill conflicts when project-level skills override globals

What This Skill Does

The skill runs a comprehensive check of your skill environment:

1. Lists global skills from ~/.claude/skills/
2. Lists project-level skills from .claude/skills/ (if any)
3. Categorizes skills by author/type:
   • Hostinger infrastructure skills (julien-infra-hostinger-*)
   • Anthropic official skills (anthropic-*)
   • Custom/personal skills (julien-, google-services-)
4. Shows counts for each category
5. Identifies conflicts if project-level skills override globals

Usage

Via Slash Command (Recommended)

/check-loaded-skills

Via Direct Invocation

Ask Claude to check loaded skills and Claude will invoke this skill automatically.

Examples:

• "Check which skills are loaded"
• "Show me available skills"
• "List Hostinger skills"
• "Are all my infrastructure skills loaded?"

Skill Resolution Hierarchy

Claude loads skills in this order:

1. Global skills (~/.claude/skills/) - Lower priority
2. Project-level skills (.claude/skills/) - Higher priority (overrides globals)

If a skill exists in both locations, the project-level version takes precedence.

Troubleshooting

Problem: Expected skill not showing up

Solutions:

1. Check if skill exists in marketplace: ls -1 "path/to/marketplace/skills/"
2. Verify sync to global: ls -1 ~/.claude/skills/
3. Re-sync from marketplace: /sync-personal-skills
4. Check for typos in skill name

Problem: Skill shows in global but not working

Possible causes:

• Skill has incorrect YAML frontmatter
• Skill references missing files
• Permissions issue on script files

Solution: Check skill SKILL.md file for correct format
