Do I need to install any Python dependencies?

No, the generated script uses standard Python 3 libraries that are pre-installed on most modern development environments.

What happens if the plugin name isn't an exact match?

The skill includes a fuzzy matching algorithm that searches your installed_plugins.json to find the closest match based on name similarity.

Why do I need this skill if I have the CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT variable?

Currently, the ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} variable doesn't reliably expand within markdown-based command files in Claude Code; this skill provides a robust programmatic workaround.

Does this skill modify my project files?

No, the resolver script is saved to /tmp/cpr.py, keeping your project directory clean and free of utility scripts.

Is the resolver script permanent?

No, the script is saved to the /tmp directory, meaning it is ephemeral and will be removed upon system reboot to prevent long-term clutter.

Locates the installation path of Claude Code plugins to ensure scripts and resources are correctly referenced in markdown commands.

This skill addresses a known limitation in Claude Code where the ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} environment variable fails to expand in markdown command files. By generating a lightweight Python resolver script in the /tmp directory, it provides a reliable way to programmatically find plugin paths using exact or fuzzy matching against the installed_plugins.json manifest. It is essential for developers who need to invoke external scripts or access assets stored within their plugin directories without hardcoding paths or relying on broken environment variable expansion.

Características Principales

01Supports exact and fuzzy matching for plugin names

02Ensures backwards compatibility by checking existing environment variables first

03Generates an ephemeral CPR (Claude Plugin Root) resolver script

04Prevents project pollution by storing the utility in the system temporary directory

05Operates without external dependencies like jq using native Python

063 GitHub stars

Casos de Uso

01Referencing assets or configuration files stored within a plugin installation path

02Automating multi-plugin workflows where installation paths are dynamic

03Executing scripts located inside a plugin directory when environment variables fail to expand
