midnight-plugin-utils:find-claude-plugin-root

To find the installation path of an installed Claude Code plugin, you can generate a local Python resolver that checks the CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT environment variable and installed_plugins.json. It performs fuzzy matching against plugin names and outputs the absolute directory path for command substitution.

Your Claude plugin script fails because markdown command files do not automatically expand the CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT environment variable. You need a Python resolver to inspect installed_plugins.json and output the absolute installation path for your scripts or CI steps.

To locate installed Claude plugins for CI pipelines, you can run a Python resolver that validates installPath directories from installed_plugins.json. It supports a verbose mode to print match details and similarity scores, outputting the absolute path for automation.

The best way to resolve a Claude plugin directory is using a resolver that performs case-insensitive substring and fuzzy matching against installed plugin names and owner/name keys. It checks CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT first, then falls back to installed_plugins.json.

Resolving Claude plugin paths does not require external dependencies. The resolver generates a local Python script at /tmp/cpr.py that directly inspects the CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT environment variable and the installed_plugins.json file.

You can debug why your Claude plugin installation path cannot be found by using the resolver's verbose mode. This mode prints match details and similarity scores while validating installPath directories to help troubleshoot plugin resolution issues.
