Plugin Developer Setup

About

The Plugin Developer Setup skill provides a comprehensive, guided workflow for developers looking to extend Claude Code's capabilities. It manages the entire lifecycle of plugin creation, from initial requirement gathering and directory scaffolding to marketplace registration and automated documentation updates. By providing pre-configured templates for Commands, Skills, Agents, Hooks, and MCP servers, it ensures all new components adhere to platform standards. The skill also performs rigorous validation checks on JSON syntax, YAML frontmatter, and naming conventions, significantly reducing the friction of building and testing custom AI extensions.
