When Claude Code merges the two, there is now an option for your own copy to keep the name of a synced plugin, and Claude Code notes when a synced copy gave way. Reports about synced plugins now also say whether each one is off by default and whether it is managed.\n\n**Why**\n\nThis changes which synced plugins load alongside your local ones.\n\n- Area: Plugins\n- Tier: You'll notice\n- Useful: 2\/5\n- Signal: 2\/5\n- Scope: both\n- Heads-up: no"}
