What
A plugin marketplace is a catalogue of plugins you can install. Claude Code refuses to load a marketplace whose name looks like one of Anthropic's own. Before, the message only said reloading would not help and suggested removing it.
If the marketplace was added from a settings file through extraKnownMarketplaces, the message now lists steps to follow in order:
Rename its entry, both the key and its source.name, to a plain-ASCII name that does not look like one of Anthropic's.
Then remove the old one.
Why
The message now tells you how to keep the marketplace instead of only saying it is blocked.
