A bug where the cron job tool persists skills as the Python repr of a list (e.g., "['skill1', 'skill2']") rather than proper values, causing skills to silently fail to load. The members cover the bug report and fixes to unwrap or heal the malformed stored shape, including a doctor flag for detection.
