What
When Claude Code cleans up the source entry of a plugin marketplace hosted on github or in git, it now removes skipLfs as well as sparsePaths. Before, only sparsePaths was removed.
Separately, the step that finds a plugin's MCP servers (outside programs that give Claude extra tools) now takes an extra option named admits and passes it on when loading those servers.
Why
This points to a skipLfs option for git-based marketplaces, and to a way of filtering which plugin MCP servers are let in.

Confirmed since
Anthropic's documentation has since written up sparsePaths, on Use Claude Code in the cloud.

Where `skipLfs` is used and what the admits option filters are not known.
