What

Claude Code has a new way to pass metadata from MCP servers to plugins. MCP servers are outside programs that give Claude Code extra tools, and plugins are add-on packages that extend Claude Code. Metadata here means extra labelled information attached to a request or a result.

  • Values that a server addresses under claude/plugins and anthropic/sources are copied into the result.
  • Each value is held to a size limit. A value over the limit is left out, logged, and named in a claude/omitted list.
  • Request metadata set by hooks (commands Claude Code runs automatically at certain points) is checked.

All of this is off unless it is switched on remotely. One part runs regardless: the keys reserved for plugins are always removed from request metadata that hooks set.

Why

This prepares a channel for MCP servers to hand information to plugins. For now, the only change you are likely to notice is that hooks can no longer set the plugin-reserved keys themselves.
