Create Claude Plugin

Scaffold a new Claude plugin by running the Skill with your plugin name. It automatically generates the directory structure, creates essential files like plugin.json and README.md, and updates your repository's configuration files including marketplace.json and release config—all in seconds.

Plugin scaffolding creates a minimal plugin structure including plugin.json for metadata, a README.md for documentation, and integrates the new plugin into your root README.md, .claude-plugin/marketplace.json, and release configuration files.

Yes, the scaffold checks for existing plugins using Glob pattern matching and prompts you for confirmation before overwriting, preventing accidental data loss when creating a new plugin with a duplicate name.

Yes, you can scaffold multiple plugins in the same repository. Each run generates a new plugin directory and updates shared configuration files like marketplace.json and root README.md to register each plugin separately.

After scaffolding, implement your plugin's core logic in the generated structure, customize plugin.json metadata, write detailed documentation in README.md, and configure release settings. The boilerplate handles directory structure and manifest setup only.

No, plugin scaffolding automates directory creation and JSON file generation. You provide only the plugin name; the Skill generates the complete boilerplate structure and integrates it into your repository's configuration automatically.
