# Arch Studio 1.4.3

Available on Open source · Published 2026-08-13

> A maintenance patch that makes the skill context audit read skill descriptions correctly.

## What’s new

- Fix: scripts/audit-skill-context.sh reads each skill description with a YAML parser instead of reconstructing it. Six description forms were measured wrong; most visibly, a plain multi-line description reported zero characters.
- No bundled skill used an affected form, so every published measurement is unchanged.
- The audit accepts an optional skills root for testing, and a new test covers sixteen description forms.

## Upgrade and migration

- Upgrading from 1.4.2 requires nothing. No skill, record format or user-facing behavior changes.
- Running the audit script now requires PyYAML, which the lint script already required.

## Thanks
