Hey, this is a known bug. In follow-up messages to an already running cloud agent in the Agents Window, skills and slash commands don’t load. Everything works for new cloud agents and in the editor window. The issue is specifically with long-running task follow-ups.

We’ve logged the issue, but I can’t share a fix timeline yet.

There’s also a parallel report about the same thing: Cloud Agents cannot find and use repository skills, commands, rules. If any extra details come up there, they’ll be helpful too.
