Automates the packaging of Claude Code plugins into distribution-ready ZIP files with metadata and integrity checks.
The Plugin Packager skill streamlines the final stage of plugin development by collecting necessary files, validating their integrity, and generating essential metadata like package.json and version files. It ensures that every plugin released follows a standardized structure, includes required documentation, and is compressed into a clean ZIP format ready for GitHub releases or manual sharing. By automating the verification of frontmatter and file structures, it minimizes release errors and ensures compatibility within the plugin ecosystem.
