When skills is set alongside an explicit tools list, the SDK only automatically adds Skill to allowed_tools (the auto-allow list), not to the tools list (the available-tools list). This means the Skill tool is unavailable even though skills are configured. Update both the tools and skills docstrings with a .. note:: admonition documenting this interaction.

When
skillsis set alongside an explicittoolslist, the SDK only addsSkilltoallowed_tools(the--allowedToolsflag) — not to thetoolslist (the--toolsflag). Since the--toolsflag determines which built-in tools are available to the model, theSkilltool ends up silently unavailable.This is the simpler documentation fix mentioned in the issue. Both the
toolsandskillsdocstrings now include a.. note::admonition documenting this interaction.Fixes #977
