Wrangler Plugin Updater FAQs

Question 1

Why is the 'npm install' step critical for this skill?

Accepted Answer

Claude Code copies plugin files but does not automatically run post-install scripts. Since the MCP server requires a built bundle (bundle.cjs), this skill manually triggers the build process to ensure the plugin remains functional.

Question 2

Why doesn't the Wrangler plugin update automatically when I push to GitHub?

Accepted Answer

Claude Code uses a three-layer caching system (GitHub, Marketplace clone, and Installed cache). It often only reinstalls if the version number changes, meaning manual cache clearing is required to sync new code on the same version.

Question 3

Do I need to restart Claude Code after running the update?

Accepted Answer

Yes. After the skill clears the cache and resets the plugin entry, you must restart Claude Code so it can perform a fresh installation from the updated source on startup.

Question 4

What happens if I don't have 'jq' installed?

Accepted Answer

The automated script uses 'jq' for efficient JSON manipulation. If it is not installed, the skill provides manual instructions to achieve the same result via standard terminal commands.
