What
A plugin's manifest is the file describing the plugin. When Claude Code cannot read one, the error message is now cut off at 500 characters. When a manifest fails its checks, the message is cut off at 1000. The manifest's path in the message is also written out differently.
Why
A very long manifest error can no longer fill the screen.
