Plugin updates now treat the `anthropic-plugin-directory` marketplace and `pluginDirectory` sources specially:\n\n- The marketplace is refreshed before updating.\n\n- Results can report `directoryRefreshFailed` and `directoryNotChecked`.\n\n- When a directory pin exists, git-subdir copies are fetched with `submodule.recurse=false`.\n\n- Updates return a new `pinChanged` field.\n\n- Version-tag matching is skipped for directory plugin ids.\n\nA new commit check runs as well. In this build it refuses to install or update pinned directory plugins, with a message saying this build of Claude Code cannot verify them.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf you install or update a pinned plugin from the Anthropic plugin directory, expect it to be refused for now.\n\n- Area: Plugins\n- Tier: Nothing to try yet\n- Useful: 3\/5\n- Signal: 4\/5\n- Present in the build but not switched on"}
