Source Intelligence

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.

You can run claude plugin update with just the plugin name, no marketplace needed.

What

You can now update a plugin without naming its marketplace. Claude Code searches installed plugins across all marketplaces: one match is updated, no match fails as not installed, and several matches fail and print the fully qualified name@marketplace forms to pick from.

Usage
claude plugin update my-plugin
