plugin-dev

Dev tool for syncing Claude Code plugin cache from local sources.

Current Status

!"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/plugin-dev" version 2>&1 || echo "(plugin-dev not available)"

!"${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/scripts/plugin-dev" status 2>&1 || echo "(could not get status)"

Workflow

  1. Check status: plugin-dev status — shows which plugins are stale and which are enabled
  2. Sync one plugin: plugin-dev sync <name> — partial name match (e.g. plugin-dev sync meta)
  3. Sync all: plugin-dev sync --all
  4. Enable a new plugin: plugin-dev enable <name> (or --all) — sync does not touch settings.json, so a brand-new plugin must be enabled once before Claude Code will load it (disable to turn off)
  5. Restart Claude Code — required after sync/enable (/reload-plugins is not sufficient)
