What is the primary purpose of the init-plugin skill?

It serves as a knowledge base and template repository for structuring Claude Code plugins, providing a blueprint for developers to follow.

How do I test a new command locally?

Place the command in .claude/commands/, add the local marketplace via /plugin marketplace add ./.claude, and install your plugin with the @local tag.

What is the difference between the .claude and plugin-dev directories?

.claude is the active development directory where changes take effect immediately, while the plugin-dev directory is for final packaging and marketplace distribution.

Can I invoke this skill directly via Claude Code?

No, this skill is designed as a reference library for other skills within the SkillForge ecosystem to ensure architectural consistency.

Provides a standardized knowledge base and templates for building, testing, and publishing Claude Code plugins.

概要

The init-plugin skill acts as the foundational architectural reference for the SkillForge ecosystem, establishing the precise directory structures and file templates needed for high-quality Claude Code extensions. It guides developers through the entire lifecycle—from initial development in the .claude directory to final packaging in the distribution folder—ensuring all YAML frontmatter, naming conventions, and validation rules are strictly followed for seamless marketplace integration.
