A copy here is the same plugin offered by another marketplace, which is a catalogue that plugins are installed from.\n\nWhen the step appears, pressing y switches the plugin to the other copy. Claude Code then shows a summary of which settings and data were kept and which were removed.\n\n**Why**\n\nIf the same plugin is installed from more than one marketplace, this gives you a way to move to a different copy. The summary tells you what you may need to set up again afterwards.\n\n- Area: Plugins\n- Names: `\/plugin`\n- Tier: Use it now\n- Useful: 4\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5"}
