Where should I store my plugin's manifest file?

The manifest file, plugin.json, must be located inside the .claude-plugin/ directory, while all other components like commands and agents live at the plugin root.

What components can I include in a Claude Code plugin?

A plugin can include slash commands, specialized subagents, auto-activating skills, event-driven hooks, MCP servers for external tools, and LSP servers for code intelligence.

How does the scaffolding process work?

The skill uses a Python-based scaffolding script to generate the correct directory structure, including the required .claude-plugin manifest folder and component directories.

How can I test a plugin I am currently building?

You can test your plugin locally by running 'claude --plugin-dir /path/to/plugin-name' in your terminal to load the development version.

What is the difference between a command and an agent in a plugin?

Commands are explicitly invoked by users via slash commands, while agents are specialized sub-entities that can be triggered automatically based on the conversation context.
