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 updates blocked by org policy report why they were skipped

Plugins

Plugin updates blocked by org policy now fail early with a stated reason instead of quietly stalling.

What

A plugin your organization's policy blocks now fails early with its own failure code, plugin_policy_blocked, and tells you it was not updated. A plugin held back by a version pin records a skip reason of pinner_blocked instead.

Details
  • Update summary counters now include marketplace_refresh_policy_skipped, plugins_helper_deferred and plugins_policy_blocked.
  • The CLI update wrapper now re-throws refusals across a wider family of failure codes, not only ones prefixed command_source_.
Evidence

is blocked by your organization's policy and was not updated

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