Claude Code's new /checkup command cleans up unused agent skills

Claude Code has introduced a new command called /checkup, designed to streamline agent setups by identifying and removing unused skills, plugins, and other components. This feature aims to reduce token usage and improve routing efficiency by decluttering the agent's environment. The command also offers functionalities like deduping local configurations, organizing large configuration files, and updating the Claude Code installation. The introduction of /checkup signals a shift towards more curated and efficient agent skill management within the Claude Code ecosystem, prioritizing skills that are actively and frequently used by developers.
