How do I install a plugin created with this skill?

Plugins can be installed using the interactive '/plugin' interface, by providing a direct local file path, or by pointing to a Git repository URL.

Can plugins be shared across a development team?

Yes. By adding plugin configurations to the project's .claude/settings.json file, you can ensure that all team members automatically install the required plugins when they clone the repository.

What is a Claude Code plugin?

A plugin is a bundled collection of Claude Code components—including agents, skills, commands, and MCP servers—that work together to provide cohesive, redistributable functionality.

How does semantic versioning work for plugins?

Plugins follow SemVer (MAJOR.MINOR.PATCH), where major versions indicate breaking changes, minor versions add features, and patch versions provide bug fixes to existing components.

What is the role of the plugin.json file?

The plugin.json file is a required manifest that defines the plugin's identity, version, author, and dependencies, enabling discovery and automated version management.
