What
When Claude Code checks a plugin and finds that its .claude folder is a link to somewhere else, the warning now reads: "This directory is a link (a symlink or a Windows junction) and nothing in it was read". It used to mention only a symlink. A symlink and a Windows junction are both ways of making a folder point at another location on disk.
Why
Only the wording changed, but Windows users whose .claude folder is a junction now get a warning that describes their setup. Claude Code skips the contents of that folder either way.
