What are plugin hooks used for?

Hooks allow you to trigger shell scripts or LLM prompts automatically in response to events like tool usage, session starts, or task completion.

Can I integrate external tools into a plugin?

Yes, you can bundle Model Context Protocol (MCP) servers within a plugin to connect Claude Code with external databases, APIs, and local services.

How do I structure a new plugin?

A standard plugin layout includes folders for skills/, agents/, commands/, and hooks/, with a central plugin.json manifest located in the .claude-plugin/ directory.

What is the difference between user and project scopes?

User-scoped plugins are available across all your projects, while project-scoped plugins are stored within a specific repository and can be shared with your team via version control.
