Claude Plugin Creator

Create the smallest valid plugin that owns the requested behavior.

Steps

1. Choose a stable kebab-case name (the install/enable identity — never change it later; use displayName for a UI label).
2. Write .claude-plugin/plugin.json with name (required) and only the metadata you can fill honestly (version, description, author, license). Omit version to let the git SHA version it, or set + bump it every release.
3. Add components at the plugin root (not inside .claude-plugin/): skills/<name>/SKILL.md, agents/*.md, hooks/hooks.json, .mcp.json. Reference bundled paths with ${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}.
4. Validate: claude plugin validate . --strict.

Rules

• Do not put unrecognized keys or wrong-typed known keys in plugin.json.
• Do not embed credentials, tokens, or [TODO] placeholders.
• Prefer skills/ over legacy commands/.
