Unclear How a plugin declares the version range it needs, and when the check runs, is not stated.
What
Plugins are add-on packages for Claude Code. A plugin can now fail with a new error code, engine_range. Claude Code treats it as a validation error, meaning a problem with the plugin's own details rather than with downloading it.
Why
A plugin that requires a Claude Code version yours does not match can be refused.
