Can I define custom paths for my plugin components?

Yes, you can specify custom paths in the plugin.json manifest. Note that custom paths supplement the default directories rather than replacing them.

What is the required location for the plugin manifest?

The plugin.json manifest must be located within the .claude-plugin/ directory at the plugin root to be recognized by Claude Code.

Why should I use ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} instead of relative paths?

Using the ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} environment variable ensures your plugin remains portable across different operating systems and installation methods, as plugins may be installed in various locations.

How does Claude Code discover new commands or agents?

Claude Code uses an auto-discovery mechanism that automatically scans specific directories like commands/, agents/, and skills/ for markdown files and component definitions.
