I'm trying to upload a skill, and the UI instructs me to upload a folder. When I try to select a folder from the Mac file explorer, it won't allow me to select a folder (but will allow me to select a single .md file).

Image

If I drag and drop the folder onto the site, it says, "Remove non-text files: email-best-practices"

Image

My skill includes several related skills that reference each other, so it doesn't make sense to upload a single .md file.

When I try via the command line, I get Error: Path must be a folder

Now, inexplicably, the button is working for me? Not sure why, must be a "me" issue.

Reopening because I found the repro.
If you go to https://clawdhub.com/upload , the first time it will correctly look for a directory:

Then, if you refresh the page (which appears to be the only way to remove files you've just chosen), it starts looking for files instead, which causes these issues.
