What
When Claude Code hands your enabled plugins to a cloud session, it now skips plugins that a repository turned on but that only your own settings are allowed to decide, explaining the omission as "a repository set it, and only your own settings may decide this one". This is on the normal path with no flag around it.
Details
A new set of plugin ids is exempt from repository-level enablement, and any id in it is skipped unless the enabling tier is your own settings.
A new counter, guard_builtin_not_own_choice, tallies the skips alongside the existing forwarding counts.
Evidence
