DisclaimerUnofficial, and not affiliated with Anthropic. Nearly all of this is read straight out of what ships: npm bundles, captured prompts, published docs. Anthropic's own notes go in verbatim, marked as theirs. The rest is my reading, and every entry carries the strings behind it. If one looks wrong, vote it down and say why.

Plugin install now tells you when a higher-priority settings file is what's keeping the plugin disabled.

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.
