What

After a plugin install, Claude Code checks the settings layers above the install scope for enabledPlugins[id] set to false and reports that case with its own message.

Details
  • walks each higher-precedence settings layer rather than only reading the install scope
  • distinguished in the install result from the ordinary "disabled by default" outcome, with a distinct message
Evidence

This plugin is disabled in your settings

Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
