FAQPage Schema
How do I scaffold a Claude Code plugin with best practices?▼

To scaffold a Claude Code plugin, you generate a standardized directory structure with a bin/ entrypoint and a plugin-level SKILL.md orchestrator. This enforces consistent architecture and reduces boilerplate.

What is the standard directory layout for Claude Code plugins?▼

The standard Claude Code plugin layout uses a bin/ entrypoint for deterministic scripts and a plugin-level SKILL.md orchestrator. This enforces clean separation of concerns and consistent structure across projects.

How do I manage state across sessions in Claude Code plugins?▼

State management patterns for Claude Code plugins provide safe persistence across sessions. Implementing these patterns during scaffolding ensures deterministic scripts and stable plugin lifecycle events.

Can I use my own architecture when scaffolding Claude Code plugins?▼

Scaffolding Claude Code plugins enforces a standardized architecture with a YAML frontmatter schema and rule-based workflow. Customization is limited to this structure to prevent config drift and maintain best practices.

Do I need specific dependencies to scaffold Claude Code plugins?▼

No external dependencies are required to scaffold Claude Code plugins. The rule-based scaffold workflow generates the complete plugin skeleton with clean entry points and deterministic scripts natively.

Why does my Claude Code plugin scaffold have config drift?▼

Config drift in Claude Code plugins happens without standardized scaffolding. Applying a YAML frontmatter schema and a rule-based scaffold workflow ensures consistent structure and prevents configuration inconsistencies.
