How do I parse these settings in a Bash hook?

You can use sed to extract the YAML frontmatter between the triple-dash markers and grep to retrieve specific configuration values.

Should settings files be committed to version control?

No, you should add .claude/*.local.md to your .gitignore file to ensure local configurations remain private to the user's environment.

Where should I store plugin settings files?

Settings should be stored in the .claude/ directory at the project root using the naming convention plugin-name.local.md.

Do changes to .local.md files take effect immediately?

No, Claude Code must be restarted for hooks to recognize configuration changes, as hooks are loaded at the start of a session.

Standardizes plugin configuration and state management using YAML frontmatter and markdown files in the .claude directory.

The Plugin Settings skill provides a standardized architectural pattern for creating user-configurable Claude Code plugins. By utilizing the `.claude/plugin-name.local.md` file format, developers can store structured configuration data in YAML frontmatter and descriptive context in markdown. This approach enables dynamic behavior in hooks, commands, and agents while ensuring project-specific settings remain local and out of version control. It includes robust patterns for parsing settings via Bash and integrating them into complex multi-agent workflows.
