What are the token limits for Claude skills?

Individual skill descriptions should be between 300-400 characters, while the main SKILL.md body should stay under 5,000 words to ensure optimal performance and context management.

What is the purpose of the Model Context Protocol (MCP)?

MCP allows Claude to securely connect to external data sources, tools, and servers through a standardized configuration, enabling more powerful integrated workflows.

What is a Claude Code plugin?

A plugin is a packaged extension for Claude Code that combines skills, slash commands, and hooks to provide specialized functionality and domain-specific guidance.

How do I install a custom plugin in Claude Code?

You can install a plugin by symlinking your plugin directory to ~/.claude/plugins/ and using the /restart command within Claude Code to load the new components.
