Plugin Dev

When to choose it

Building and documenting your own Claude Code plugin.

Choose it if: You are authoring a plugin and need guidance across its structure, skills, commands, agents and tools.

Look elsewhere if: You only want to install a finished plugin, or expect generated examples to be correct without checking current APIs.
