# Interface: SkillLimitErrorInit

Thrown when a skills request exceeds a provider limit. Lives in core (rather
than `@tanstack/ai-skills`) so the native tool factories in `ai-anthropic`
and `openai-base` can throw it without depending on the skills package;
`@tanstack/ai-skills` re-exports it for the portable path.

`path` distinguishes the native provider cap (e.g. Anthropic's 8-skill
limit) from a portable-path limit, so a portable user isn't sent chasing a
cap that only applies to hosted skills.
