What probably matters to youSection of the release
What
Installing a plugin now refreshes its marketplace before showing you the catalog, so newly published plugins appear without a manual step. If the refresh fails you get a warning line above the plugin details and the cached catalog is used instead.
Details
Applies to marketplaces backed by git, GitHub or a URL; a marketplace refreshed recently is skipped, and anything else is reported as ineligible.
Outcomes are recorded as refreshed, refresh_failed or ineligible, and the failure reason shown to you is sanitised.
Replaces the old path that installed first, then offered a refresh-and-reload retry.
Evidence
plugin_install_refresh_first, showing the cached catalog.
Strings lifted out of the shipped bundle, so the claim above can be checked against them.
