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.

What

Hooks and commands shipped by a plugin can now point at files inside the plugin itself, using $CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT or ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT} at the start of the path.

Details
  • The path validator accepts this prefix alongside the two it already allowed, $HOME and $CLAUDE_PROJECT_DIR.
  • Applies unconditionally, with no setting to turn it on.
