What is a Claude Code plugin?

A plugin is a collection of skills, slash commands, and Model Context Protocol (MCP) tools that extend Claude's capabilities and domain-specific knowledge within your terminal.

What components can I include in a plugin?

A plugin can include specialized skills (system prompts), custom slash commands, event hooks (like pre-commit), and MCP servers for external data integration.

How do I distribute my plugin to other users?

Plugins can be distributed via direct GitHub repository links, public marketplaces, or private team manifests defined in the Claude Code settings.

Can I test my Claude Code plugins locally?

Yes, this skill provides a workflow for setting up a local development marketplace, allowing you to install, test, and iterate on your plugin before publishing it.
